It is a pleasure to collaborate and support our Sunrise Jaguars. I earned my B.A. from Philander Smith University (Previously known as Philander Smith College) and M.A. from Webster University. I have been a Texan for 17 years by way of Arkansas. I love spending time with family & friends. In my free time I like to raise money for non-profit organizations. I have worked for FWISD for 16 years as an educator. I decided to work in education because I have a deep interest to encourage students to have a joy for learning.
