I am originally from Texas, where I grew up and got my Bachelors in Mathematics. Hook 'em Horns! Then I taught in Grandview while completing my Masters in Education, appreciating every second I got to explore with my students the creative and dynamic nature of mathematics. I love to hike and will always appreciate a good recommendation!
