I’m proud to have been born and raised in Gainesville, Texas, where I attended St. Mary’s School from kindergarten through eighth grade. It is truly a blessing to teach in the same loving, faith-filled environment that played such an important role in shaping my life. Being able to give back to the school and community that invested in me is both an honor and a privilege.

After graduating from St. Mary’s in 2004, I attended Gainesville High School, where I graduated in 2008. I continued my education at North Central Texas College, earning an Associate of Science degree. In 2015, I enrolled at Texas Woman’s University, majoring in Interdisciplinary Studies with a concentration in Early Childhood through Sixth Grade. I graduated in May 2016 and earned my Texas Standard Teaching Certification.

In 2010, I married my husband, Justin, and together we have been blessed with three wonderful sons: Hayes Earl, Wyatt George, and Waylon John. Our family enjoys spending time together, and I am grateful for the opportunity to share my love of learning and faith with my students each day.
