I am honored to have been a part of the Teravista Elementary School community since 2014.  I have been married to my husband Walter for 23 years and we have one son.  Zachary attends Texas State University on an Air Force ROTC Scholarship. He is majoring in Computer Science. When I am not in the classroom, I like to cook, garden, and read. In addition to teaching,  I serve on the Advisory Board for the Texas Comprehensive Center, a nonprofit education research, development, and dissemination organization.  I am a consultant for the National Writing Project and an officer in my professional teaching organization, the Association of Texas Professional Educators.
