Personal: Prior to teaching at St. Mark, I worked in the Plano ISD for seventeen years in special education K-5. I have experience in an educational environment that includes co-teaching, inclusion, resource, and content mastery.
  
Philosophy of Education: I believe in creating a learning environment that embraces individual learning styles providing an atmosphere that is positive, supportive and secure. Children need to continue to grow and explore using their knowledge for meaningful experiences both spiritually and independently.  
  
Mission Statement: My mission is to provide and support students who will become independent thinkers, problem solvers, and risk takers in their Christ-centered learning environment ensuring them care, respect, and spiritual guidance while serving each other and their community.
