I was born and raised in Laredo, Texas and graduated from Nixon High School in 2005. After graduating, I went to University of Texas Pan American and was a part of the track and field team for 3 years. Then, I transferred to Texas State University where I graduated with a degree in Exercise and Sports Science. I come from a family of many coaches and educators. This is my ninth year teaching, and I am eager to be a positive influence and build relationships with my students and athletes. I teach PE (Outdoor Adventures), Head Track and Field and JV Volleyball coach.
