I was born and raised in Bogota, Colombia.  I studied Psychology at Pontificia Universidad Javeriana (Catholic University in Bogota, Colombia) and obtained the title as a Doctor in Psychology.  After my college education, I had the great opportunity to work for Shell Colombia, Human Resources Department, for 7 years. In 1991, I got married and moved to the United States.  From this marriage I have two wonderful children.  Once my children were in school, I decided to study Criminal Justice at the University of Houston.  Also, I wanted to work teaching and what better than becoming a math teacher!  I worked to certify myself as a Math and Science teacher and also obtain my certification to teach Spanish.   I have been with FBISD since August 2005.  For 7 years I worked as the Math and Science GT teacher.  Then, I moved to Middle School and taught 6th grade for 12 years.  Based on my scores and class management I was offered the possibility to teach 8th grade curriculum.  I am delighted to experience this new opportunity I was given and I am expecting nothing else but success in every manner.
