I currently have 23 years teaching and leadership experience. During my career, I have diversified my experience to include all academic areas from early elementary to high school. I have reviewed campus data to plan intervention strategies, professional development, and enrichment needs. My philosophy in education is that we all possess genius and our job as educators is to offer every opportunity possible for our students to showcase their talents. As an administrator, I build solid, lasting relationships with our students, families, and staff members. I will always work to ensure that we all have a safe, positive, equitable school climate.
Double File Trail Elementary School is a Title One Campus serving 630 students. The majority of my career has taken place on this campus. I have built lasting relationships with students, families, and staff. I lead by growing staff leadership capacity and partnering with all stakeholders.
During the Summer of 2022, I served as the Union Hill Summer Launch Principal. Within this role, I was able to establish my vision for a campus by providing 4th and 5th grade students with an opportunity to revisit skills from the previous school year in an environment that focused on student engagement, enrichment, and positive relationships. Teachers were also given the opportunity to grow in their profession through collaboration, encouragement, and support.
Double File Trail Elementary is a Title One school in the Stony Point Learning Community. I worked as a Fourth Grade Teacher, Team Leader, and Principal Intern from 2008-2014.
Austin Achieve is a Title One public charter school in East Austin. During my time at AAPS, my goals were to inspire students to realize their potential, build sustainability for staff members, and raise student achievement.
My career began at Boswell Elementary in 2000 as a fourth grade teacher. Life lead me back for one year during the 2014-2015 school year as a fifth grade teacher. During this time, I was a leader in our character education and PBIS programs.
