Welcome to my webpage. I am excited to be back at Independence High School, my alma mater. The subjects I teach are Civics and World Geography.I am also an assistant football coach and the head track coach. I received my college degree from Southeastern Louisiana University.I previously taught at Walker HighSchool and coached football. My goal as a teacher is to develop my students not only academically, but to prepare them for real life after high school. I am looking forward to getting to know each student I teach and adapt to their individual needs in the classroom. I am sure the year will be fun and rewarding for me as well as my students.
