This is my sixth year at Rucker Elementary. I have been part of the PISD family for a little over seven years. I completed student teaching at Cockrell Elementary, then concluded the 2013-2014 school year there as a Pre-K and Second Grade long-term substitute. I completed four fabulous years teaching second grade here at Rucker, and I'm ecstatic for year two in THIRD!

I have a Jack Russell Terrier, Ziggy and a cat named Comet. We also have a new kitten, Petey, that adopted us while doing yard work in June. 

Third grade holds a very special place in my heart. I have known since I was in the third grade that I would be a teacher! My elementary educators always loved and believed in me, pushing me to my full potential. The unique relationships I have been able to create and foster with PISD students keeps my passion for working with kids burning. I know this is going to be an AWESOME year. Thank you so much for partnering with me to help your children be the best they can be!
