The path that led me to Education came in a very roundabout way. As a little girl, I knew I wanted to be a teacher. I decided to take a completely different route and after many grueling years of studying numbers, codes and formulas, I graduated with my BSEE in Computer Engineering from San Diego State University. For seven years, I programmed hardware and absolutely loved it! After experiencing being a SAHM (code for stay-at-home-mom), and having my own wedding biz, I finally decided that I wanted to pursue what I knew was always in my heart, working with children.
My journey into education started when I had the honor and privilege to become part of Chula Vista’s staff shortly after the school opened in 2011. I completed the HTH Credentialing Program and have since continued to support our students academically, socially, and behaviorally. When I’m not working, I love spending time with my family of 5, gardening, and managing my small succulent business. I am extremely excited to continue to be part of HTeCV as an Education Specialist, supporting our 3rd & 5th grade teams for the 2022-2023 school year!
