I began my career in education in 2016, following several years in marketing and real estate. My passion for helping students succeed led me to become an educational diagnostician in 2021. I hold a bachelor's degree in journalism with a minor in marketing from Stephen F. Austin State University (2011) and a master's degree in special education from Lamar University (2021). 

I am proud to be part of the education community, where I work to support students' unique learning needs. Outside of work, I enjoy volunteering at animal shelters, traveling, spending time with my family, and walking our rescue boxer, Emmitt. I live in Waxahachie and am dedicated to making a positive impact both in and out of the classroom.
