My educational career began at a young age, having discovered my love for teaching others through typical child's play. I vividly remember setting up a "school" at my aunt's house where I would spend my summers and recruiting my youngest cousin to be my pupil. We would spend hours pretending to be in a true classroom and it was there where the spark began.

At Bonham Academy I began my career as a Dual Language Teacher, which led to where I stand today, a graduate student of the University of Texas at San Antonio Master's program. My experiences at Bonham have led me to pursue a leadership path within education, having been motivated to continue to help others. There is no better way to do that than working directly with the teachers who are impacting our students on a daily basis. It is through them that our children reach great academic heights and surpass their own expectations.

Throughout my program I have had the opportunity to work with someone who has modeled what an effective leader looks like and what they do. Thanks to him, I have been inspired, motivated and encouraged to continue pursuing my goals within education. I look forward to taking more initiative within and outside Bonham and continuing to expand my abilities and experiences in order to become an effective leader myself.
