I graduated from East Central University in 1993 with a Bachelor of Science degree in Mathematics, then went on to OU and earned a Master degree in Biostatistics. BOOMER SOONER!!! After graduating from OU I went to North Carolina and worked in Quality Control. When I moved back to Oklahoma I worked as an adjunct professor in the math dept. at East Central University and part time for Byng Schools. In 2001 I became a full time math teacher in the Junior High where I currently teach 9th grade Algebra I. Thank you for sharing your child with me!
In 2006 I earned National Board Certification in Early Adolescent Mathematics.
