Goals and interests

Career goal

I am on track to graduate from TAMU in May 2018 with the ability to teach general education EC-6, English as a Second Language K-12, and special education K-12.
I plan to work as a special educator at a low-income school in Texas.

Outside the classroom

I enjoy working with children through my church's Sunday school program and through its middle school and high school youth group. Swimming and spending time in the gym or running outside is the best way to start or end any productive day. And reading allows me to travel and expand my mind to further depths while drinking coffee accompanies every activity wonderfully.
