Spanish Language Arts and Math

Self Contained

I arrived to the United States when I was 2 years old, was raised in Houston, Texas and have lived here for most of my life. I attended HISD schools throughout my educational career (JP Henderson, Project Chrysalis and Eastwood Academy). Growing up, I never knew exactly what I wanted to be. I had ideas of being an adventurer, an astronaut, a chef, and even an artist! It wasn't until I was sitting in my advisors office that I realized I wanted to be a teacher. During middle school and high school, I participated in clubs where I was helping other kids such as in tutorials, reading to kindergartners and being teachers aide. Once I knew what I wanted to be I had to take action. I received my Associates Degree from HCC in 2018 and my Bachelors Degree in 2019 from Texas Tech University. Wreck em' Tech! This made me the FIRST person in my family to graduate from college! Becoming a teacher was one of the best choices that I made. Having grown up in the Greater East End, I find myself reflecting back to the times when I was a student. I see myself in my students which makes me feel a greater connection to them. I'm very hopeful that I am able to reach all my students and have a positive impact in their lives. My career is just getting started and just like my students; there's so much more to learn!
