About Me

My name is Angela and I am a Social and Emotional Learning Specialist with Austin Independent School District.  Formally, I taught social communication skills at Boone Elementary School.  My husband, Rey and I live in south Austin with our sweet toddler, Mateo, and our two Shih Tzus, Sadie Belle and Penny Love.  Our house is certainly full of love!  I grew up in Austin and graduated from UT in 2004 with a Bachelor's degree in Applied Learning and Development and a minor in Childhood Studies.  Hook 'Em!! I interned and student taught at Boone in second and first grade classrooms.  In 2005, I was lucky enough to be hired as a first grade teacher at Boone.  I enjoyed teaching first grade for two years and then decided to make the transition to SCORES.  I was a SCORES teacher for six years.  I recently made the transition to becoming a Social and Emotional Learning Specialist for the district.  What an exciting new journey I am on!  Teaching social communication and emotional skills has always been my passion and I truly enjoy collaborating with educators!   Social and emotional learning is absolutely vital for children to succeed at school and in life.  I am motivated and inspired to continue this important work!  I am lucky to love what I do! 

    I'd love to hear from you!
