As I begin my second year as Principal of Keeley Elementary, I am filled with gratitude and excitement for the opportunity to continue serving this incredible school community. It has been a joy to get to know our students, staff, and families over the past year, and I look forward to building on the strong foundation we’ve established together.

My journey in education began in Garland ISD in 2004, and the 2025–2026 school year marks my 27th year in this profession. Before joining Keeley, I had the privilege of serving as Principal at Spring Creek Elementary for five years and previously held roles including Principal of Back Elementary, Assistant Principal, and Counselor at a GISD magnet campus. These experiences have deepened my commitment to cultivating strong relationships, fostering academic excellence, and creating a safe and supportive learning environment for all students.

At Keeley, we are united in our mission to provide engaging, differentiated learning experiences that inspire and challenge every student. I am proud to work alongside such a dedicated and talented staff that continues to uphold high expectations and achieve remarkable things for our students.

As we look ahead to a new school year, I am excited to continue this journey with each of you. Together, we will ensure that Keeley remains a place where students thrive and grow, not only academically, but socially and emotionally as well.

Here’s to another great year of learning and leading at Keeley!
