Growing up in Mansfield, I was fortunate to receive an exceptional education from Mansfield ISD, an experience that shaped who I am today. Now, as a parent, I am incredibly proud to have raised my own children in this same community, so they too could experience the wonderful education and support that I received.

My passion for children has guided me throughout my life, from my early involvement in our schools to my work as a foster parent and child advocate. I’ve served on PTA boards, community advisory committees, and even spent a year as a crossing guard—literally stepping out on faith to protect our students.
