I could not be happier to be a 3rd grade teacher at Barton Creek Elementary! I am incredibly fortunate to have a job I love, coworkers I can call my friends, and students whom I deeply care about. BCE has become my home away from home. This will be my 11th year teaching! I've also taught 2nd and 4th grade but 3rd grade is my favorite grade to teach!
As a child I loved to read, play sports, dance, be outside, and enjoyed acting. I mostly grew up in the Round Rock/Leander area and moved to Austin after high school. I received my Bachelors in Elementary Education from Texas State University. Go Bobcats! Both my parents are now retired teachers (Art and PE) and I have four brothers.
This last May, my husband and I welcomed a baby boy into our family! When I am not working or taking care of my baby, I enjoy playing with my dog, exercising, reading, watching movies, shopping, traveling with my husband (he's a pilot), and spending time outdoors.
