About Me

 

This is my seventh year at the Mid-High and my ninth year to

teach.  I have two children, two dogs, two nieces and a nephew. 

I will have been married to my high school sweetheart for

eleven years in November.  I graduated from Mustang High School

in 1995 and then attended Southern Nazarene University

before I transferred to Oklahoma State University. GO POKES!

 

In my spare time, I love to read, play games, and spend

time with my family.  My favorites include: the TV show BONES,

Sonic iced tea or diet coke, anything chocolate, and Air 1 radio. 

I am actively involved in my church where I am the nursery director

and co-teach a 4th grade Caravan class.
