Favorite Quotations:

Education and Training:
I received a BA in English from Texas A&M University, home of the Fightin' Texas Aggies-Whoop!
After spending many years in corporate America, my family decided I would stay home after the birth of our first child.  I started working part-time in Catholic Schools in 2007 and continued to do so for 7 years with 3 of those years being in the School Library.  After taking a two-year break, I returned to Catholic Schools in 2016 to work in the library as the St. Joseph Catholic School Library Manager. In 2019, I moved out of the library and am currently serving as the SJCS business manager.
 
Where I have lived:
I am a life-long Texan, growing up in San Antonio, Texas, spending my college years in Bryan-College Station, and then settling in the DFW area.
 
My Family:
My husband and I married in 1994 and have two beautiful children. Both of our children attended area Catholic schools for K-12. They are now young adults, one having graduated from the University of Kansas and the other attending University of Notre Dame.
 
My prayer for our students:
I pray that all of our students feel God's warmth and presence throughout their lives, that they grow in faith and
spirituality during their time here at St. Joseph Catholic School and that they always know the love and joy
of Jesus Christ.
 
John 3:16  For God so loved the world, that he gave his only Son, that whoever believes in him should not perish but have eternal life.
 
Psalms 5:11-12 But let all who take refuge in you rejoice; let them ever sing for joy, and spread your protection over them, that those who love your name may exult in you. For you bless the righteous, O LORD; you cover him with favor as with a shield.
