info​​
​I have been teaching at a variety of levels for many years and enjoyed each level. I believe learning should be meaningful, interactive and fun. My goal is for every student who walks into my room find some enjoyment in learning. In 2013 I was chosen as the Secondary Teacher of the Year for Allen Independent School District. Currently my teaching is expanding to instructing other teachers in technology, flipped learning and other innovative classroom techniques.
