I grew up in McAllen, Texas with my parents, three younger brothers, and sister.  I moved to Austin to attend the University of Texas in 2006 and fell in love with the city immediately.  I played clarinet in the Longhorn Band and met my husband, Jason, there.

I taught at Lupine Lane for nearly a decade, from 2013 to 2022, until my daughter Charlotte, Charlie for short, went to elementary school after attending Lupine Lane from age 2 through the Flamingos Class. Charlie and her sweet brother, Owen are now both in elementary school. I am glad to be back this school year!

I have a ninety pound red lab named Puck. I love to read and I like hockey. I also love traveling with my family, especially to destinations by the water.
