Hello parents! This has already proven to be a challenging year with covid disrupting many aspects of our lives, but know that I am excited about being your child's third grade teacher this year. I have taught at Ed Franz for two years now, first as a student teacher with Kindergarten and with third grade last year. I graduated from Texas A&M-San Antonio with my BA in interdisciplinary studies EC-6th May 2019. I graduated from the first full class of Karen Wagner and believe it is a privilege to teach in the district that helped shape me.

I have dreamt of being a teacher since I was four years old. I used to sit my younger siblings down and teach them to read. Education is a great passion of mine.

I am a naturalist, specializing in Lepidoptera, which is a fancy way of saying I research butterflies by taking pictures and notating what plants I find the caterpillars on. I also love to read, travel, and enjoy my three cats: Stardust, Luna, and Lil Mama. I also have a bearded dragon (lizard) named Smaug who loves apples and bananas. 

I believe that collaboration is the key to a successful school year and I look forward to working with each and everyone of you.
