I am a career educator who saw a gap in the vertical design in education and decided to make a difference in that area from grades second to sixth. I have dedicated many years to developing and implementing my craft. Although I began my career in Houston Independent School District, I found a home at Houston Gateway Academy, Inc. I have served in many capacities from teaching elementary grades’ 2, 3, and 4, currently teaching sixth grade, being a Lead Teacher for many years, a Reading First Interventionist with the Reading First Program located at the Evergreen Campus, and part of the Houston Gateway Academy Team Management for the Evergreen Campus. I continue to help my students to soar to excellence in education from year to year. My belief is that with knowledge and determination you can do anything. My desire is to produce life long-learners and honorable citizens.
