I am excited to join the Gator Family this year! This is my 29th year in education and will be my 25th year with FBISD.  After 16 years in the classroom and 5 years as a Campus Assessment Coordinator, I moved into the role of assistant principal at Fort Settlement Middle School in 2018. Prior to being the assessment coordinator, I was in the English Language Arts department at FSMS where I taught both seventh and eighth grade ELA. I am an original staff member of FSMS and have served as team leader as well as ELA department chair. Prior to working at FSMS, I taught for four years in Bastrop, Texas--three years at Bastrop Middle School and one year at Cedar Creek Middle School. 

I hold a Master of Education degree from the University of Houston and completed my Bachelor of Arts degree in English at Southwest Texas State University (Texas State University). My teaching certifications include principal EC-12, English 6-12, Reading 6-12, English Language Arts 6-12, History 6-12, and ESL 6-12.

In my spare time, I love spending time camping, kayaking, paddle boarding and traveling with my husband Matt, daughter Madelyn, and our dogs.
