Working with students is one of my favorite activities. From helping to open a locker, to seeing creativity come to life with a green screen, and hearing silly riddles, I always have a good story to tell about intermediate students. I have been a classroom teacher for 24 years in a variety of grade levels; from my first teaching years at University Park Elementary as a second grade teacher to the fifth grade science lab at MIS. I am thrilled to now include the role of Campus Instructional Technologist to my school experience. 

As a native Texan from Richardson, I grew up with my family of four enjoying the outdoors at our lakehouse on Lake Tawakoni. Many a summer was spent fishing, skiing, tubing and firefly-capturing. Growing up I was always involved in team sports like volleyball, softball, doubles tennis and soccer. I still enjoy outdoor activities like hiking and swimming with my two daughters. 

My family moved to Michigan where I attended Western Michigan University in Kalamazoo to complete my undergraduate degree in elementary education before moving back to Texas. While I was a fourth grade teacher at UP I earned a master’s degree in elementary education with an endorsement in gifted and talented, from the University of North Texas. I continued my graduate education while working at a local private school in Dallas, earning a second master’s degree in educational administration with principal certification.

I see my role as the Campus Instructional Technologist as a classroom support to teachers and students, helping them integrate technology tools within core curriculum to enhance learning. I look forward to seeing the Raider creativity that develops when students are learning with technology.
