After 3 1/2 years, 115,000+ miles driven, classroom observations in four separate school districts ,and student teaching 7th graders, on May 8th at 2PM I received my BS of Education from New Mexico State University.


Here are a few pics from the commencement and after.



What are those funky things on his feet!

With my mom after the commencement. She received her BS in Education from NMSU in 1999.


With my dad.

Walking across that stage and being recognized was worth it and showed those who placed obstacles in my way that I was not going to give up.
