Welcome Wildcat Parents! I am so excited to be your child’s teacher this year. This year, you will see tremendous growth in your child’s life especially academically; this is the reason why I teach Kindergarten!

I graduated from Houston Baptist University with a double major in Bilingual Education and Elementary Education. Later, I attended University of St. Thomas were I received my Reading Recovery Certification (both in English and Spanish) and Early Childhood Certification. In the last 27 years, I have worked in and out of the classroom (Bilingual Literacy Specialist, ESL Support Teacher and Reading Recovery Teacher) but I seem to always end up in the classroom because it feels like home!

married: 23 years

children: 3 amazing sons

hobbies: jogging, cooking, and spending time with my family

favorite foods: salads, Panini sandwiches, and Peruvian food

favorite drinks: water and coffee (expresso)

P.S. I hope to see you at the numerous family functions here at Oakland!
