Originally from the south side of Chicago, Illinois, my family and I relocated to Texas in 2006.  I taught in the State Prekindergarten program for Chicago Public Schools for 10 years.  With the relocation, I began my career in Texas working as a paraprofessional in content mastery and functional academic programs with Frisco ISD until obtaining a position as a first grade teacher.  I taught grades 1, 2, and 4 for Frisco ISD until my transition to Lakeview becoming part of the famiLE.  After two years in third grade, I was promoted to fourth grade!  

I obtained a Bachelor's Degree of Science in Early Childhood Education at Chicago State Universtiy, and a Master's Degree of Science in Educational Leadership at Concordia University.  I am excited about continuing my education in the near future.  

I am married to my best friend, John, and we have four blessings:  Jasmin, Joy, Jori, and Jayce.  We also are proud grandparents of two grandladies, Kyah and Keyari!!  

In my spare time, I enjoy spending time with my family and friends, traveling, volunteering, and gardening.  

I'm looking forward to a year full of learning, great experiences, great relationships, memorable moments, and fun!!
