About Me:

I taught sixth grade in the Arlington ISD before becoming a full-time mom and community volunteer, establishing adult literacy programs in Denton County and working with the PTA in Lewisville ISD where each of my 5 children (Brian, Elizabeth, Christina, Michelle and Jennifer) attended school. I also worked on campaigns as a member of the Texas Federation of Republican Women.

Wanting to make a difference in public education, I served two terms on the State Board of Education. I appeared on Nightline and the Today show about our efforts to correct more than 5,000 errors in school textbooks.

Now serving in the Texas Senate, I am working to increase access to health care for Texas families ... while also looking out for our state's fiscal health.
