One of the things I'm going to miss at CFISD. Talented students journalists do a lot of the heavy lifting when it comes to showcasing the best across the district. Support local journalism. Great job #cfisdHSJN . 🎉

New day. New opportunity.

Excited to join the Communications team at Harris County Department of Education.

The Cypress-Fairbanks ISD staff sent Dr. Mark Henry out in style for his retirement with a clap-out Thursday in the building that bears his name. Lots of cheers and happy tears to celebrate the superintendent on his 42 years in education and 12-plus here in CFISD. #CFISDspirit 🎉

Super proud to watch our youngest graduate from Stephen F. Austin on Saturday. 1st in her family to earn a college degree.

I remember telling her as a senior in 2020 how she could be the one to change the direction of her family. Jaelyn, you raised the standard. #SFA23 #AxeEm 🎉

Work ID is less white and more yellow after 6+ years but I'll only need it 1 more week. My time at CFISD will come to an end this month.

Very thankful for the opportunity to transition from newspapers into school PR and continue being a storyteller.

Next chapter coming soon...
