I am truly honored and privileged to be the Associate Principal at Knowlton Elementary! It is a blessing to be part of such an amazing community of teachers, staff, parents, and students. I am extremely excited about working closely with Ms. Olvera to ensure the academic, social, and emotional success of our Knights.
I am originally from El Paso, Texas. I earned my Bachelor's Degree in International Relations from the University of Southern California. I graduated with my Masters in Educational Leadership from Concordia University in Austin, TX.
I previously served as the Vice Principal at Ellison Elementary School for three years. Prior to serving as an Administrator I was a Pre-K, 2nd and 4th grade Bilingual Teacher. I was also very fortunate to have had the opportunity to serve at Leon Valley Elementary School as the Math Specialist for three years.
I truly believe in the importance of education and in the great responsibility our teachers hold in guiding our children. I believe that education is the key to success and my hope is that I will be able to keep motivating students to enjoy school and continue their education. I aim to spread the love for learning and knowledge, as well as to inspire students and staff to do their best and exceed their own personal limits.
I look forward to getting to know each one of our "Knights" and their families while making many more great memories TOGETHER!

¡Es realmente un honor y privilegio ser la subdirectora de la Primaria Knowlton! Es una bendición ser parte de una comunidad tan increíble de maestros, personal, padres y estudiantes. Estoy extremadamente entusiasmada con la oportunidad de trabajar en estrecha colaboración con la para garantizar el éxito académico, social y emocional de nuestros estudiantes.
Soy originaria de El Paso, Texas. Obtuve mi Licenciatura en Relaciones Internacionales de la Universidad del Sur de California. Me gradúe de la Universidad de Concordia en Austin, TX con maestría en liderazgo educativo.
Antes de unirme a la familia de Knowlton, serví como subdirectora en la escuela primaria Ellison por tres años. También tuve la suerte de haber tenido la oportunidad de servir en la Escuela Primaria Leon Valley como especialista en matemáticas durante tres años. Antes de esa experiencia serví como maestra de Pre-Kinder, segundo y cuarto grado.
Realmente creo en la importancia de la educación y en la gran responsabilidad que tienen nuestros maestros para guiar a nuestros hijos. Creo que la educación es la clave del éxito y espero poder seguir motivando a los estudiantes para que disfruten de la escuela y continúen su educación. Mi objetivo es difundir el amor por el aprendizaje y el conocimiento, así como inspirar a los estudiantes y al personal a hacer lo mejor y superar sus propios límites personales.
¡Espero conocer a cada uno de nuestros "Caballeros" y sus familias mientras hacemos muchos más buenos recuerdos JUNTOS!
