         I am so glad that you have chosen Christ the King School for your child’s education. This is my twenty-first year at CKS! I know CKS is a wonderful school. My baby graduated from CKS in 2011.
         My philosophy in education is to assist students in obtaining their maximum level of achievement both academically and spiritually. Yet, my favorite thing about teaching is getting to know my students and helping each grow into the unique person God intends them to be.
          I was born in Houston, Texas, the fifth child in a large Catholic family. I received a Bachelor of Science in Speech Pathology and Education of the Deaf from Texas Woman's University and a Master of Arts in Interdisciplinary Studies with a concentration in Mathematics from the University of Texas at Dallas.
          I am married to Charlie, and we have been blessed with three children: Adrienne, Chaz, and Lane.  All our children are married and as a proud parent and grandparent, I am delighted to have five grandchildren: Joshua, Anya, Isaac, Nicholas, and Eleanor. We cherish the moments spent with our growing family and find joy in watching them flourish.
          I am excited to be a part of the Christ the King Community for another great year as an upper school math teacher. It has been a delight getting to know the wonderful families, teachers, and staff at Christ the King.
