I am from New Jersey. I moved to Houston, Texas, in 1996. I graduated from St. Peter's University. I attended SMU, a technology school in Houston, Texas, and the University of Houston (Go Cougars), where I received my lifetime business certification for grades 6–12. I also attended California State University, where I studied elementary curriculum. I am Microsoft Certified, as well as OSHA certified.

I have been a CTE teacher for 30 years at Bellaire Senior High School. I retired from Bellaire Senior High School in 2021. I was also employed with the Houston Community College as a Microsoft Specialist, teaching Software to all ages. This is my third year employed with Baines Middle School, and I love it.

I am proud to add my life's accomplishments. I am an author. I wrote my first children's book called HannahMae Adventure (found on Amazon, Barnes and Noble, and  Dorrence Publishing/Book sales).

I have two children, Courtney-Brooke and Kristopher, a daughter-in-law, Alexa, and four grandchildren, Kaya, Jayda, Savannah, and Soren. I have to mention my tea cup Yorkie, HannahMae. 

I am thrilled to be teaching your child this school year. Sharing my knowledge and learning is so amazing.
