This is my nineteenth year working in education, all within Judson ISD. The first nine years, I had the privilege of working with children with disabilities as a paraprofessional.  During that time, I decided to pursue a degree in education and graduated from the University of the Incarnate Word. I am now entering my tenth year as a teacher.  My first two years were spent teaching second and third grade.  For the past eight years, I have been working as a Special Education Teacher, which is where my heart is. This year will be the fourth year that I will be working with a Co-Teacher in fifth grade.  

I have been married for 38 years, and I get to call myself mom to a daughter and twin sons. In my spare time, I like to be with my family. I enjoy reading, cross stitching, and when the weather isn't too hot, I enjoy playing volleyball and softball.
