Kindergarten Teacher
All About Me!
Welcome to Kindergarten! I am so excited to be your teacher this year! This will be my first year as a Timberline Tiger, but my 14th year in education. I am very honored to be joining GCISD! I have a Masters in Special Education and a Masters in School Counseling. Most of my educational career has been in special education, specifically behavior programs.
I moved to Grapevine from Houston three years ago to marry my amazing husband, Matt. Our beautiful, blended family includes three children: Collin (18 years old), Clover (11 years old), and Leven (10 years old). Collin is starting his freshman year at Tarleton State University this fall before transferring to Texas A&M next fall. Clover will be in the sixth grade and Leven in the fifth grade. My husband is an Aggie, so we are always yelling for Texas A&M, especially football. In addition to Aggie football, I LOVE sloths! You will see from my room decor they are my spirit animal.
I look forward to collaborating with you and making this year a successful one for your child!
