I am an elementary science teacher with experience designing TEKS-aligned, inquiry-driven lessons for grades 2–5 that integrate hands-on experiments and technology to build critical thinking and real-world application.
I have a B.S. in Liberal Studies and am pursuing an EC-6 teaching certificate (pending) while completing Texas Teachers Of Tomorrow. I analyze assessment data to inform instruction and implement differentiated strategies that increase student engagement and mastery.
