BIOGRAPHY

I began my career with Las Cruces Catholic School in 2009.  I was born and raised in Southern California. I have worked in education since I was 19 years old.  I earned a Bachelor of Arts degree from California State Polytechnic University, Pomona. My family and I moved to Las Cruces in 2005.

In California, I worked as a Bilingual Instructional Assistant while attending college. I worked with all grade levels from kindergarten to sixth grade. After earning my bachelor’s degree and clear credential I accepted a second-grade position.

In 2009, I applied for a position at Las Cruces Catholic School and was given the opportunity to teach second-grade. I taught second grade for two years and in 2012 I began teaching fourth grade. I fell in love with fourth grade and have spent the last ten years working with fourth-graders
