The power of dark lipstick!!! It takes a lot of confidence to go dark. After this past week, my confidence is higher than it has been in such a long time. But that's what happens when you love what you do, and get to immerse yourself into it fully. #YearbookAdviser #GoBigDallas #JournalismTeacher #BigShot #UILCoach #JEAMember #NHSJCFall17 (at Aloft Dallas Downtown)

Kush Wisdom... Vincent Van Gogh... True words... Teaching and advising are definitely my passions. I took the long way around, but it is so worth it. High school is not for the weak! Even if you reach just a few students each year, it is the best feeling in the world when you see "your" kids thriving. #HighSchoolTeacher #EducatorForLife #YearbookAdviser #JournalismTeacher #UILCoach

"You must love having weekends and summers off as a teacher!" Yo, tell that to my 12+ hour UIL day... I have a full team this year!!! Yearbook is coming through for me big time! #TeachersLife #UILCoach #IGradeAllDay #YearbookAdviser

Love my Yearbook/Journalism Team! They have worked all day and most of them have to get up with me to travel to Lindale for our first UIL meet at 5:30 in the morning. They are motivated and dedicated! How did I get so lucky!?!? #YearbookAdviser #JournalismTeacher #UILCoach #FirstYearTeacher #WinningTeam (at Nacogdoches High School)

My team is growing. 🤗 I am learning patience from trying to rebuild the UIL Journalism program. It will take me years to get where my fellow, amazing, district members are now. I must remember to enjoy the journey, and soak up as much as I can. #UILCoach #Journalism #ReBuild #LearningExperience

Week 4 is going to be challenging!!! The little's party is this Sunday. I have to continue to prepare my interview, and I have a new student joining my UIL Journalism team for the meet next Saturday. Busy, busy, but so worth it! #SingleMomToMEG #FutureTeacher #UILCoach #SuperHeroSansCape
