About The Teacher

I am excited about teaching at Cactus Ranch.  This will be my 19th year to 
teach and my 9th year here at CRE.  I graduated from Baylor University in 
1991 and started my teaching career in Cy-Fair ISD.  My husband and I moved 
to the area in 1997.  We have two sons, Craig and Kyle.  Craig is in the 8th 
grade and Kyle is in the 6th.  I have taught 2nd grade for 9 years, 
kindergarten for 6 years, and 4th grade for 3 years.  

My family loves to travel together and we spend most of our time at the ball 
fields.  Both boys have played baseball, flag football, and basketball. Craig 
plays tackle football for the Walsh 8th grade team. All the sports keep us 
busy! I love to stay active and in the last year I successfully completed my 
1st half marathon.  It was something I never thought I could do.  I continue 
to run and am hoping to do another half marathon this year.  Some of my 
teammates are also runners and we have had a blast running and competing 
together.  You may see me around the neighborhood after school and on the 
weekends running!

As a parent and a teacher I know how busy our lives can get.  I will be more 
than happy to work with you and your child on making sure they are able to 
keep up with the homework that comes home each week.  If you have concerns or 
questions, please feel free to contact me.  My job is to help your child be 
successful and learn as much as they can this year.  I want school to be a 
positive and an exciting place.  We are going to have a fabulous year!
