I am originally from Louisiana but moved to El Paso in 2020. I graduated with my master's in psychology: child and adolescent development in 2022 from Southern New Hampshire University. This will be my first-year teaching but not my first year in the classroom. I was previously an Instructional Aide at Ernesto Serna. 
My hobbies include spending time with my husband, daughter, son, and two dogs. I like to travel, read, bake delicious treats, binge watch Netflix shows and watch movies. My favorite place to visit is the beach but I also love hiking in the mountains. Pizza is one of my favorite foods and I love anything chocolate.
