Track & Field: Pole Vault MS and HS

I am a Texas State Graduate with a Bachelor's degree in Exercise and Sports Science and a minor in Math. Go Bobcats! While at Texas State, I competed in pole vault on the Texas State Track and Field team. The coach I had while training there made such a positive impact on my life, which led to my passion of becoming a coach as well. I am excited about working with each and everyone of you and cannot wait to help everyone succeed. I enjoy spending time with my family, hiking, traveling both throughout the U.S. and abroad, pole vaulting, swimming, volleyball, playing the piano, and anything else outdoors! I have a passion for teaching you all great lifelong skills so that you will be successful in setting, reaching, and maintaining your goals!

Experience:
This is my first year as an Educator/Coach. I bring a lot of energy and level headedness to the table. So far this year has been exhilarating and look forward to finishing the year out to start anew. 

About Me:
I am a Houston (Richmond) native. I played football, wrestled, and threw shot/discus at Richmond Foster. I knew I wanted to work in the realm of education since about 8th grade or so. I saw the impact sports played on not only my life, but also on my teammates lives. Some of whom worked their way out of calamity to play professional/semi-pro ball. 

Moreover, by trade most of my work experience hovers around construction based work. I worked mainly as a Sub-Contractor in high school up until I transferred to Texas State, with a pinch of land surveying before I was hired on. 

Education:
I started my college career at Wharton County Junior College, where I completed my basics developed a great passion for learning. After I completed my basics, I transferred to Texas State University to finish out my degree. There I went all in and absorbed as much knowledge as I could, taking the "harder" teachers so I could learn from someone who held the bar higher than most dared to go. This is why I try to set the bar far enough away as to make it challenging enough so they feel a great deal of pride when they finally reach it.
