Welcome to my class! I'm embarking on my 24th year teaching English. I received my Bachelor's Degree in English from the University of Houston and my Master's Degree in Literature from UHCL. I am certified to teach ELA 4th-12th grade with an ESL certification for grades 3-12.
I have been married to Danny for 22 years and we have 2 children; J.D. is 18 and just graduated high school and Clarisa is 13 and going into eight grade.
I have previously taught at Channelview High School, La Porte High School, San Jacinto Junior College, and now I couldn't be happier to be here at Endeavor High School at the Campbell Learning Center since 2010.
I was the CISD Secondary Teacher of the Year in 2012 and EHS Teacher of the year in 2012 and 2021.
This year I have started my journey to become a National Board Certified Teacher. I am looking forward to the challenge to become an even better classroom teacher and recogonize my students for their unique qualities and learning styles. I believe that you should never be complacent in your life and always look for opportunities to do better.
I am pleased to offer tutorials after school upon request, but if you need help, you can usually find me in my classroom by 7:45 every morning.
My conference period is scheduled from 11:59-12:55 every day.
