Welcome Back Eagles!

I am so excited to begin my third year with JISD at Candlewood Elementary serving as a Response to Intervention (RTI) teacher. I have been an educator for twenty-eight years. I am originally from El Paso, Texas where I was a classroom teacher for nineteen years teaching first, second, multi-grade and Fifth grade. I served as a State Compensatory Education Interventionist-Coach at the Elementary and PreK-8 school settings for the Socorro Independent School District.

“Go Miners!” I am a proud graduate from the University of Texas at El Paso earning a Bachelor of Arts in Interdisciplinary Studies and Master of Education in Instructional Specialist-Reading and Master of Education in Administration.

My family is my happy place. I am a proud wife and mom of three amazing children. When I am not supporting their activities, I enjoy cooking, the outdoors, museums and reading.

I am humbled to have the opportunity to work with your most precious treasure-your children. Together we will help them S.O.A.R.
