I am so excited to start my first year at Linda Lyon Elementary teaching Reading Language Arts.  This will be my first year in Rockwall ISD and my 18th year in education. I have taught 3rd, 4th, and 5th grade and have been an Instructional Coach in Mesquite ISD.   I have lived in Rockwall for 30 years and have two children, Andrew and Allyson, who both graduated from Rockwall Heath High School.  Andrew is married to Morgan, and Ally is working for a public relations firm in downtown Dallas.   I have been married to my husband Bobby for 30 years and we love to camp in our RV, kayak, and spending time outdoors. I enjoy relaxing with a good book and a great cup of coffee!
