I was born and raised here in Alief ISD.  Attending Chancellor Elementary, Alief Middle School, and graduating from Taylor High School in 2005.  After earning my degree from Texas A&M University, I moved back to Alief to become a Math teacher.  I taught 7^th and 8^th grade math, and also coached football, track, and baseball for 8 years before becoming a school administrator.  I believe that every child has a desire to learn, and given the right opportunities, can excel and find joy in their education.
