About Me
I have a bachelor's degree on Political Science and International Affairs, but after working in the government field for a couple of years, I decided that schools were the best place to make a real impact. I have a Masters in Education, and I am attending SMU to earn my second in Bilingual Education. I have been a teacher for a long time and I love it!
Experience
I've been a teacher for 14 years and I have had the opportunity to work with students from PK to 10th grade. My favorite is 2nd grade, where I have spent most of the time. I also have tutor kids that need support with reading, math, English as a second language, and homework.
I'm coaching the robotics team and I'm a certified Coding instructor.
