I extend my warmest greetings to you. As I enter my fourth year at Anthony Aguirre Junior High, I am honored to share my professional journey with you. While my initial tenure was rooted in the realm of Texas History instruction, my passion for fostering knowledge and cultural understanding has led me to now dedicate myself to the dynamic sphere of 6th grade World Cultures.

Within my teaching repertoire, I adeptly manage both CAAP and Regular courses, employing a pedagogical approach that places a profound emphasis on nurturing disciplinary skills through the vehicle of inquiry. My commitment to educational excellence extends beyond the classroom, as I am an engaged member of Aguirre's esteemed AVID Site Team, contributing to the holistic development of our students.

My academic journey commenced at the illustrious University of Houston, where I earned a Bachelor’s Degree in History. This pursuit of knowledge propelled me further to attain a Master’s Degree in Curriculum and Instruction, with a specialized focus on Social Education. With each passing day, I reaffirm my unwavering passion for the art of teaching, and I am deeply grateful for the opportunity to guide and inspire my students.

While my professional identity is deeply rooted in education, I am also fervently devoted to the realms of technology and writing. My literary endeavors have graced the pages of The Daily Cougar, the University of Houston's esteemed student-led newspaper, as well as Coog Life, the university's notable magazine. These endeavors, mirroring my commitment to intellectual growth and creative expression, underscore the multifaceted nature of my pursuits.

Thank you for allowing me to share my journey, passions, and dedication with you. I look forward to continued growth and collaboration in the pursuit of educational excellence.
