I grew up in a small farm town called Williams, located in Northern California. I was very active in 4-H and FFA through middle school and high school. I moved to Lubbock, Texas in 2007 to attend Texas Tech University. I received my teaching certification in 2011, but continued my education at Texas Tech University to complete my master’s degree. I previously taught first grade in New Deal and third grade in Allen. I love teaching elementary students and watching them flourish throughout the year. I’m excited to be a part of Gunter ISD and hope to make this the best year yet.
