Just a little update on me


Teaching is my passion! I truly believe this is where I was meant to be - in the classroom and now VIRTUALLY.  We will get through this together.

I am married to a wonderful husband, Mitch. He is also an educator with LISD. He coaches seventh and eighth graders in football, track, soccer, and off season and PE as well. So we are both trying to figure out this at home learning together. I have two dear daughters, Kaylee and Courtney.  Kaylee is a junior/senior at Texas A&M. She is currently in College Station under a Shelter in Place order. She is completing ALL of her classes online now. Which has been an easy transition for her since she has some online classes already in her college career. Courtney is a 
junior at FMHS. She is a softball player and is MISSING that the most. Those are her people! Life has definitely slowed down for us now that we are not going to all the sporting events. A few hobbies I am trying to enjoy in this new norm are reading, working out, and COOKING all the time. I really can't say cooking is a hobby - I am not a fan.

I am a Texas A&M Aggie Class of 1994.  My family bleeds maroon. I was born and raised in Texas and do not plan to live anywhere else, but Texas.  I received my Bachelor of Science in Special Education from Texas A&M and my Masters of Education in Special Education from UNT. 

This is year twenty-five for me and a first for us all experiencing this COVID-19 situation. Please enjoy this time with your kiddos. We will survive and they are very resilient.

Been a while

Well, it has been a while since I have been on here! We are on day 8 or so of Covid-19 quarantine.  And in a whole new way of teaching. Please allow grace for us and we go through uncharted waters. I hope to post updates, apps, websites, lessons through this blog. Let't give it a try.
