Welcome!
Hi, I am excited to be starting my 16th year of teaching! I am currently teaching high school art, junior high art, and Culinary at RT-C. I grew up in Round Top and am a graduate of RT-C High School. This community and school has a special place in my heart. I currently live in the Round Top area, and I love spending any free time I have with my family, especially my 1 year old granddaughter.
My Education and Professional Background
I received a Bachelor's of Business Administration degree in Accounting from Sam Houston State University. After working in the business field for 15 plus years, I realized that my college professors were right all along (that I should teach). So, while working full time, I went back to school to get my teaching certificate. This was the hardest but best decision I could have made for my life and my family.
Teaching Philosophy
I believe in lifelong learning and leading by example in the classroom. I am dedicated to building relationships with my students to help them succeed academically and emotionally, inside and outside of the classroom. It is my desire to give my students the best tools, strategies, and encouragement they need to be the best they can be in their life.
