This will be my fifth year as Director of Discovery Day School. I'm very excited to be working with so many devoted teachers and staff.

Prior to my advancement to director, I served on the staff as a lead teacher for the 3 and 4 year old classes, as well as helping out at different times with the 18 month and 2 year old classes.

My college years were spent between Abilene Christian University and Stephen F. Austin State University, where I earned a BBA in Marketing. In my career prior to having kids, I was a Media Director in Houston and Austin for a business to business marketing agency.

As well and being blessed by my work, God has given me a wonderful husband of 17 years and 2 children, ages 11 and 9. My life working with children began in the preschool my son was attending, as an aid in the extended care program. Moving to the Mothers Day Out program when my daughter began preschool, I was able to take on the wonderful challenge of teaching a class. The rewards of working with children have been so great, and the blessings continue with each new group of children. I look forward to continuing to learn and grow along with the children in Discovery Day School.

I am happy to be teaching at Discovery Day School. My husband Kevin and I have 2 wonderful children who are 14 and 11 years old. We have lived in Dripping Springs for 3 1/2 years, along with our 2 rescue dogs and 2 chickens!

Teaching is my passion! I have a bachelor's degree from Southwest Texas State University in Sociology. More recently I obtained my teacher's certificate through graduate work at Texas State University. I have taught preschoolers from 18 months to 5 years-old, wrote curriculum and taught Science Camps and Music/Movement classes. Additionally, I have taught Kindergarten and 4th grade.

Outside of teaching, I am a Girl Scout leader, participate in community outreach through Mobile Loaves and Fishes, and love sports, being outdoors, playing games and reading.

I am the mommy of two precious little girls ages 6 and 2. I am married to a great man, Brad, who is a home builder. I have been working with children in some capacity for most of my adult life. Most recently, I worked as a preschool teacher's aide and taught a preschool class for the parenting series "Growing Kids God's Way". I received my Bachelor's Degree in Speech Communication from Southwest Texas State University. Prior to graduation, I was an education major for 2 years and have had several child development classes as well as work and volunteer experience under my belt.
