Education:  Bachelor of Science, The University of Texas at Austin

I have been at St. Mark Since: 2024

Personal:  I am so excited for my second year of teaching kindergarten and first year of coaching cheer at St. Mark. I have been catholic all my life and love teaching at a catholic school with such a strong community! I got married this past year and traded in my last name, Coutoumanos, for one a bit shorter and easier to say. I enjoy going for walks, baking, and cheering on the horns at Texas football games!

Philosophy of Education: As a teacher at a catholic school, I strive to create a joyful, Christ-centered environment where every student feels valued and inspired to learn. 
  
Mission Statement: My mission is to foster a Christ-centered environment where students grow in faith, knowledge, and character. I strive to inspire learners to embrace curiosity and kindness, preparing them for a life of purpose and service.
