A little about me.
This is the place to get information about me and my class procedures. Choose from the menu bar above for various classroom information.
First, a little about me. I was born and raised in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania and I am a huge Steeler fan. I moved to Texas in 1993 with my husband and son, and embarked on a career as a teacher. I graduated from The University of Houston and immediately secured a job in Fort Bend ISD. I've been at Fort Settlement Middle School since 2001 and I can't think of a better place to work. The staff and students are incredible.
I am passionate about history and teaching and strive each year to be a better teacher. My number one goal is to help awaken within my students the desire to learn and be the best they can be. I set high expectations for them because I know they are capable of doing amazing things when they set their mind to do something.

I'll do my best to get back to you in a timely manner.
