Personal Information

I am originally from Llano, Texas, but moved to Lubbock to attend Texas Tech University. My husband Jason and I both threw shot put, discus, and hammer for the Texas Tech Track team from 2000 - 2004 and stayed in Lubbock after graduation. We have a 12-year-old son, Omo, who is a 7th grader at Terra Vista this year.

This is my 19th year in education and my tenth year at TVMS. I graduated from Texas Tech University with a Bachelor of Science degree in Exercise and Sport Science and Psychology in 2002. I earned a Master of Science degree in Sport and Exercise Psychology also from Texas Tech University in 2004. In 2010, I completed a Master of Education degree in School Counseling from Lubbock Christian University. 

I want the educational experience your child has in my class to be the best and most productive it can possibly be.  If you have any questions or concerns, please feel free to contact me. I am excited about being at Terra Vista and am looking forward to great school year!
