Hello Bridlewood Broncos!
I am your music specialist at Bridlewood Stem Academy ES. This school year is my 20th school year of teaching elementary music. I teach Kindergarten through Fifth Grade general music.
A little bit of my journey to Bridlewood...
After graduating SMU and the completion of my student teaching, from 2007-2020, I was the music specialist at Hastings Elementary for Duncanville ISD. I was chosen to be "Teacher of the Year" for Hastings for the 2015 school year. I was also awarded "Lifetime Member of PTA" at Hastings in 2011 for the many programs and performances I have coordinated.
I was also the K-6 District Music Coordinator for Duncanville ISD from 2014-2020. As coordinator, I led Staff Development meetings with other music teachers in the district, and oversaw the All City Choir concert at the High School with all district choirs performing. I coordinated different events the choirs in the district performed at for the community like the Duncanville Christmas Tree Lighting after the Duncanville Christmas Parade and the All City Choir concert.

I have family living in Grapevine, so I moved from Dallas to Grapevine in 2020. I LOVE teaching elementary music and I am happy to be doing what I love. I love that I get to be your music specialist this sixth school year as your music specialist and I love being a Bridlewood Bronco!
