As of 2024, I have taught history in Texas for four years, in U.S. History, World History, and AP World History. I have a passion for all social studies, and in addition to my history work, I enjoy designing curricula for geography, government, and Texas History.
Games-based learning, people-centric history, using art as a process and outcome of learning, SEL, roleplay.
I was awarded First Year Educator of the Year at my campus in 2022.
I earned my BA in History from Texas Tech University in 2018, and my Texas teaching certification from the University of Texas at San Antonio in 2021. I am certified in 7-12 Social Studies and 7-12 History.
I am a writer on the side, and have studied literature, mythology, and creative writing for fun. While not certified in these areas, I also enjoy creating lessons and ideas for English 7-12. Who knows--I might be certified in it one day, anyway. :)
