About Me

I am proud to serve the scholars of Pumphrey Elementary as the Academic Dean for the Early Learning Academy.  I have been in education for about 18 years, serving as a paraprofessional, teacher, instructional coach and now as an Academic Dean - all in Early Childhood. I grew up in Port Arthur, where I taught for 10 years before moving to GCCISD 4 years ago.  I am a graduate of Lamar University for both my bachelor's degree and principal certification. I hope to begin pursuing my doctorate later this year, 

I have one son- Merritt and a French bulldog named Waffles.  In my free time, I enjoy learning, travel and being around friends and family. 

I am passionate about building a foundation for our youngest learners and am proud to be in Goose Creek where the mission to grow the whole child is evident in everything we do.  I look forward to working with the families and children of Pumphrey Elementary.
