I firmly believe that every student in H.I.S.D. deserves a highly effective leader and that a high-quality education should be accessible to all. My extensive background in education includes roles as a Literacy Coach, Dyslexia Interventionist, Literacy Specialist, Teacher Development Specialist, Assistant Principal, Principal, and Adjunct Professor. These experiences have equipped me with expertise in data analysis, parent and staff communication, content area knowledge, best practices, online digital applications/platforms, and cooperative learning strategies.

I am committed to the belief that all students can and will succeed regardless of their background or socioeconomic status. Throughout my career, I have positively impacted many teachers by guiding their instruction and supporting their professional growth. As a Principal, I have been adept at identifying campus strengths and weaknesses and developing action plans to address our needs. My participation in numerous professional development trainings on instructional coaching has further honed my skills. I have also presented and facilitated various professional development sessions for teachers.

With twenty-two years in education, I hold a Bachelor of Science degree from the University of Houston, Summa Cum Laude, and a Master of Science degree from the University of Houston Clear Lake. Additionally, I participated in the Rice University Strategic Marketing Management for School Leaders Program and am currently enrolled at The University of Oklahoma for an Ed.D. focusing on higher education. I am currently in the Cahn Fellows 2024 program.

For the past eight years, I have proudly served the Horn ES community as Principal. During this time, I have been honored with the West Area Principal of the Year Award and Principal of the Month awards, which reflect our team's collective efforts. Under my leadership, Horn ES has consistently maintained an 'A' campus rating, with achievement scores among the highest in the Houston area. 

Our goal at Horn ES is to create strong partnerships between home and school. We look forward to serving you and your children at Horn ES!
