Hey y'all! I am so proud to be a part of this Adkins Kindergarten family!!! This will be my 9th year of teaching Kindergarten at Adkins and I LOVE everything about it. Each day I come to school thrilled about the opportunities to learn and grow alongside these little ones. I am passionate about creating an environment where students feel successful, happy, and safe. My promise to you is that I will love your child as if he/she were my own. We are a FAMILY!

Speaking of family, let me tell you a bit about mine......

I was born and raised in Tyler Texas. I graduated from Texas A&M in 1993 and after a few years in the business world, I spent the next 14 years as a stay-at-home mom. I decided to teach at about 12 years ago and I have loved every second of it since. I have been married to my wonderful husband, Jeff, for 27 years. Together, we have four amazing children. Our oldest daughter, Maddison, is married and has given us our newest pride and joy, our grandson – Zane (7). Our oldest son, Jacob, is 26 and after graduating from Texas A&M, is now living in Austin. My son, Chase, is 23 and is getting a Masters in Aerospace Engineering at Texas A&M (Do you see a trend?). My youngest and only girl, Sophie, is 20 and she is a junior at Texas Tech University.

I look forward to getting to know you!
