I was born and raised in Austin. I am lucky to have my mom and one of my sisters close to me. My oldest sister and her family live in California. I have a 25 year old son, Alex. He graduated from UT majoring in Psychology with a minor in Anthropology. We enjoy going to movies and UT basketball games together. I have two old dogs, Cookie and Rocket. I enjoy swimming, and practicing yoga and meditation. I enjoy movies and listening to music at home and around town. I also watch too much TV!

I received my bachelor's degree in Anthropology with a minor in Archaeology in 1991 from the University of Texas at Austin. For three years, I worked in archaeology around Central Texas and in Belize. In 1997, I started working at St. Louis Early Childhood Development Center teaching 4 and 5 year olds. I went back to UT to get my teacher certification. I graduated in December 2003.

Why do I teach?
Why do I teach?
Teaching is my second career. I fell in love with teaching when I started working with 4 and 5 year olds at St. Louis Mother's Day Out. After a few years, I knew I wanted to go back to school to become a teacher. I teach so I can bring new experiences to my students and create curiosity for the world!! I have a passion for learning and I want to pass that on! I love to learn about cultures, technology, science, nature, really everything! That is why I teach!
