I am originally from Ohio, after which I served in the military in the United States and Europe. Prior to entering Education, my earlier profession was Laboratory Science. I looked through microscopes in hospital and clinic laboratories for years, analyzing specimens.

As a teacher I have taught 3rd - 6th grades in elementary and middle schools, in Georgia as well as in Texas. My own children attended Judson schools and I feel fortunate to be part of the JISD family.
