Welcome to 4^th grade! I am so overjoyed for this school year here at Neill. This will be my 2^nd year at JNE, but my 16^th year in education. I grew up in Sugar Land, Texas. I am a proud product of FBISD. I attended Walker Station Elementary, Garcia Middle School, and Austin High School. I am so happy to be teaching in the same district that I attended! I graduated from University of Houston-Downtown with a degree in Interdisciplinary Studies. I earned my Master’s degree in Educational Leadership from Southern New Hampshire University. I am very excited to see what this year brings. Teaching has been my passion since I was a little girl.

 I love to spend time with my family and friends. I have three children. My oldest son Jaydin attends Austin High school, as a sophomore. My youngest son Jordin will be a freshman at Austin high school, as well. My only daughter Brooklyn is my 4 year old princess. I also enjoy cooking, journaling, reading, and do anything active to keep up with my growing kids!

I am looking forward to a wonderful year go Longhorns!
