I have had the privilege of serving as Bryan ISD's Coordinator of Community Engagement since June, 2017. Prior to this position, I had the honor of collaborating with an amazing group of educators at Ben Milam Elementary, where I worked for two years as the school principal. Before moving to Milam, I served as the principal at Navarro Elementary School in Bryan ISD for three years.

Between 2009-2011, I served as an assistant principal at James S. Hogg Middle School in Tyler, Texas. I was also an assistant principal at two different elementary schools in Tyler (Ramey and T.J. Austin). I started my educational career as a 2nd grade teacher and taught in 4th grade as well. Between 2010 and 2014, I worked as an adjunct professor at The University of Texas at Tyler under the Department of Educational Leadership and Policy Studies.
I attended Universidad Iberoamericana in Puebla, Mexico and received my Bachelor of Business Administration degree in 2001.
