I am happy to begin my sixth year of teaching science here at Carnegie Vanguard! I have previously taught middle school in both Katy ISD and HISD. I came to Carnegie from Albert Thomas middle school. Prior to teaching, I was in the military for 20 years and retired in 2018. I have been able to travel the world and see many different places, with my favorite experience being celebrating St. Patrick's day in Dublin. I come from an IT background. I am very passionate about science and I look forward to sharing my life experiences, scientific knowledge and passion with the students and community of Carnegie. And as a side bar, I like to have fun while we learn.
