A two-time Ä¢¹½ÊÓƵ alum, I have a bachelor's degree in interdisciplinary studies with a specialization in reading and early childhood endorsement and master’s degree in education. I also hold the following credentials:

• dyslexia specialist, Neuhaus Education Center's program in Houston
• licensed dyslexia therapist through the Texas Department of State Health Services
• certified academic language therapist
• and a member of the Academic Language Therapy Association.

Before beginning my work as an intervention teacher working with struggling readers and children with dyslexia, I taught in the classroom for 11 years, primarily with third and fourth grade.

I'm a proud Ä¢¹½ÊÓƵ alum and Nacogdoches native. As a Licensed School Psychologist, I provide all Ä¢¹½ÊÓƵ Charter School students with social-emotional support. You may also see me at morning drop-off and afternoon pickup! 

I received my Bachelor of Science in special education and the all-level certification in special education, both from Ä¢¹½ÊÓƵ. I taught for 12 years at Carpenter Elementary as a resource, self-contained and inclusion teacher for kindergarten through fifth grade.
