"Every child deserves a champion: an adult who will never give up on them, who understands the power of connection, and insists that they become the best they can possibly be."

Hello and welcome to my online classroom! This is my second year as a Road Runner at Ridgemont Elementary, my 7th year with FBISD, and 15th year in education as a teacher. This year I will be serving in the capacity of Team Lead and ELAR/SS teacher for 5th Grade in room 5004. My students bring a lot of joy into my life and I am grateful for the opportunity to teach and learn from them! 

My Educational Philosophy: I believe that every student has the potential to be great. It is up to us as educators to bring that greatness out of them and instill in them a sense of belief that they can accomplish anything they put their minds to. As an educator, it is important for me to celebrate every accomplishment, no matter the size, with my students. It is also my duty to motivate my students to become successful, independent, and lifelong learners to build an exceptional future.
