"A teacher who is attempting to teach without inspiring the pupil with a desire
to learn is hammering on cold iron." -- Horace Mann

My journey through education:
In the fall of 2015 I began my teaching career in Richardson Independent School District. I have been blessed to teach fourth grade for 2 years and second grade for 1 year at Carolyn Bukhair Elementary, as well as teaching first grade for one year at Dover Elementary.
I grew up in Frisco, Texas and attended public school in Frisco ISD from first grade until graduating at Frisco High School in 2010. After graduating from high school I attended Collin College to complete my core classes. After a few years I transferred to Texas A&M University- Commerce to complete my BSIS in EC- 6 degree. I also have plans to become certified in ESL as well. In the fall of 2014 I began my student teaching journey. I have been blessed to complete my student teaching in Mesquite ISD at Rutherford Elementary School. Furthermore, I have had the wonderful opportunity to student teach in kindergarten, first grade, and fourth grade. On May 16, 2015 I graduated college and received my diploma.
