I grew up in the Dallas/Fort Worth metroplex. I received my undergraduate degree in Psychology from University of North Texas specializing in Human Cognition andOrganizational Psychology. While pursuing a Master's degree in Human ResourceDevelopment, I discovered my calling to public school education. My role as a middle school science teacher sharpened my vision to be precision-focused on empowerment, access, equity and social emotional learning for young people. With these goals in mind, I earned my Master's degree in Educational Leadership and Policy Studies from University of Texas at Arlington.

During my free time, I enjoy celebrating the little things in life with my boy/girl toddler twins, building community with friends and family, going on hikes, exploring new places, and learning about/engaging in equity work in the field of education.

I am looking forward to meeting our students and families! I am eager to build something truly impactful and joyful together!
