About Me
I was born and raised in Houston, Texas, and I am a Spring Branch ISD graduate. I attended Rummel Creek Elementary and Memorial Middle School. I graduated from Stratford High School in 2000 and continued my education at Texas A&M University. I graduated from A&M in 2004 with a B.A. in English and History. I completed my semester of student teaching at Katy Taylor High School where I taught English II, English IV, and U.S. History. I then returned to Stratford as a long-term substitute and taught Integrated Physics and Chemistry. After a semester and a half at Stratford, I moved to Memorial High School. This will be my fourteenth year at Memorial. During my time at Memorial, I have taught English I Academic, English I Pre-AP/GT, English II Academic, and Reading I. I have also coached cross country, basketball, and track. This year I am teaching English I Academic and English I Pre-AP/GT.
My husband, Brian, teaches AP Government and coaches football at MHS. We have a six year old son, Buck, and a two year old daughter, Annie. In my spare time I enjoy running, working in my yard, and reading.
I love the English I curriculum, and I enjoy having the opportunity to welcome a new group of students to high school and watch them grow over the course of four years. I look forward to an exciting year!!
