My Story
Hello! I was born and raised in San Antonio with two amazing parents, and an older brother and sister! God has graciously blessed me to be the aunt of 1 nephew, Levi, and 2 nieces, Mila and Charlotte. I can’t forget that I have 2 awesome dogs, London and Gideon! I have taught 1st and 3rd grade in San Antonio and the Spring Branch area. I love being a teacher and could not imagine doing anything else. Above all, repenting and surrendering my life to Jesus has changed my life for the absolute better! It is a joy to call SACS my home!
What church do you attend?
Mission City Church
What do you love most about teaching, coaching, or working at SACS?
What I love most about working at SACS is how SACS is built on the firm foundation of the unwavering and unchanging word of God. Nothing beats being able to teach and guide the upcoming generations to stand in truth and to seek first the Kingdom. The community is built on a unified love for Jesus, and I cannot wait to see what the Lord does in the lives of the staff and students this upcoming school year! Let’s go Lions!
Favorite Bible verse
Romans 8:38-39 – “For I am convinced that neither death, nor life, nor principalities, nor things present, nor things to come, nor powers, nor height, nor depth, nor any other created thing, will be able to separate us from the love of God, which is in Christ Jesus our Lord.”
What are your hobbies and interests?
Outside of work I am either hanging out with my family & friends, running, reading, or watching new movies/t.v shows!
