I am the ESL coach and interventionist for Pearson and Beaty ECS. This is my 19th year at Plano ISD and my first year at Pearson. I started my career as a teaching assistant at Beaty and became an ESL teacher in 2014. I love working with early childhood education, where every moment is an opportunity for discovery and growth. As an ESL ( English as a Second Language) coach, I am dedicated to catering a nurturing environment for our students who are acquiring English as their second language. My role involves designing age-appropriate language activities that foster communication skills, support emotional and cognitive development and celebrate cultural diversity. I aim to ensure that each child feels valued and empowered on their language - learning journey. 

I am a mother of 3 boys, who all graduated from Plano ISD. I have a sassy cat named Mogli.

I love to travel and learn about different cultures and parts of the world. I also like to watch sports with my boys and love baking.
