I attended Our Lady of the Lake University, in San Antonio, Texas. I earned a Master's Degree in Social Work, specializing in serving Hispanic children and families. However, I have worked in both private and public schools as a high school Spanish teacher as well as many years as an ESL teacher in public schools. .

My interests are being the best mother, grandmother, and great grandmother. Having an active role in my family's lives keeps me busy. I enjoy going to their sports games. I also enjoy cooking, gardening, and sewing. I love spending time on the beach, swimming, and fishing. I love reading the Bible.
