I have been at St. Mark since: 2000
Personal: I am a mother of three awesome kids, all in the medical profession, and all of whom attended St. Mark Catholic School. I began my teaching career as an Autism teacher in the public school system in Dallas. My move to teach Art in the Diocese of Dallas has be so rewarding. It is wonderful to be able to express and practice our Catholic faith in our day-to-day teaching at St. Mark with our students and staff. Outside of school, I enjoy Sunday meals with my family, ALL sports, home decorating, refurbishing furniture, art camps, and playing with my dogs.
Philosophy of Education: "Art is not what you see, but what you make others see." ~ Edgar Degas
Mission Statement: I help guide my students to have a positive attitude toward creativity and individuality.
