This will be my 17th year in Cy-Fair. I started out working at the Carlton Center as a paraprofessional. I then worked at Kirk Elem as a LIFE Skills para while getting my teacher certification. This will be my 9th year teaching LIFE Skills at Matzke! I graduate from Kansas State University. Before moving to Texas I lived in Kansas, Virginia, Colorado, Wisconsin, California and Ohio. I have a son Jacob who lives in Houston and a daughter Allie who graduated from the University of Texas and lives in Austin. During my free time I enjoy going to the gym, watching movies and traveling to Kansas to visit my twin sister, three brothers and my mom.
