Related to Christie Elementary School
Education: BS In Interdisciplinary Studies and Elementary Education from University of Texas at Dallas
Years in education: I have been teaching kindergarten for five years. In my third year, I was honored as Christie’s Experienced Teacher of the Year, but everyday I interact with my students is an honor.
Family: I am a proud mom of two wonderful children. My son, Shayan, is 21 years old. He is currently a senior at the University of Texas at Austin as a film major with an emphasis on documentary production. My daughter, Shabnam, is 19 years old. She is a recent graduate of Plano Senior High and has recently begun her freshman year at Collin College. She speaks four languages fluently: Farsi, English, German and Spanish. I also have two adorable cats, Olive and Dexter.
Interests/Hobbies: Spending quality time with family and friends, exercising, and traveling. I love finding new ways to reach out to my students, and I am inspired by the new challenges and opportunities that come with each day. I look forward to making new relationships and inspiring the excited and curious minds of kindergarteners.
If I hadn't been a teacher, I would have been... a psychologist because I am interested in the field of psychology.
Interesting facts about me: I am trilingual. I speak Farsi, Azari Turkish, and English. My parents have four daughters and four sons, and I am the second youngest of the bunch.
