Teacher Bio

I'm very excited to be going into my 11th year of teaching this year, and to be teaching the greatest course in the world, AP English Language and Composition. I am also very happy to be embarking on my second year as one of the coaches for our excellent Academic Decathlon team. I look forward to being your guide through both of these challenging courses, and I know that with persistence and practice you will grow as a writer through your time spent in my classroom. Our class motto is "progress over perfection" for a reason 😄

I am a Pearland resident myself with 2 kids currently in elementary school, and my husband also works in education for Dickinson ISD. In my spare time I read voraciously, drink copious amounts of coffee, and I am always willing to discuss Gilmore Girls, Broadway, and penguins with anyone who will listen. It's going to be a great year!
