This is my Fourth year at Paris ISD. I have been teaching for thirteen years, my first seven years I taught in Georgia, then taught two years in Montana, and now, I’m here in Paris. 

I have been married for 33 years. We have two boys, Coltin and Harley, they are both active duty Air Force. Coltin is getting ready to move to Hawaii and Harley lives in Washington State. They followed their dad”s career choice and joined the AF. My husband’s career allowed us to experience many wonderful places, we lived in Germany for 8 years. We traveled all over Europe. My favorite country besides Germany is Italy. 

Both my husband and I are native Texans, we grew up in the Metroplex and attended L.D.Bell. We have two very spoiled fur babies, Jessie and Odin. They both are big dogs, but think they are lap dogs. I have a cat that thinks he is a dog. Duece does what ever the dogs do, he even goes on walks with us. We also have 3 donkeys; Clemintine, Ada Lou, and Ella Mae. All three of them are spoiled as well. We have 11 cows and a bull that are all big babies, and of course are spoiled! Last, but not least, are my fish, I have two aquariums and a large goldfish pond. Yes, some of my fish have names.
