I have no special talent. I am only passionately curious. - Albert Einstein

Hi! I'm Aubrey.
​​​
I knew I wanted to teach on the first day of kindergarten when I learned teaching was a career someone could have. After graduation, I began my journey in education as a public school teacher and taught for a number of years at a school in the Austin area. When my oldest was born, I quit teaching to stay home. I missed teaching, but I loved being home with my children.
​
My science classes for the homeschooling community grew out of what I was doing with my own children. It quickly became evident that my kids were interested in STEM careers so honors level, college preparatory, hands-on science classes became increasingly important. I wanted to ensure that all the students I teach - not just my own - would be competitive applicants for college. My goal has always been to ensure that students have a firm foundation that will prepare them to not only excel in science at the collegiate level but also find science engaging, relevant, and enjoyable.
​
Almost two decades later, I'm still teaching and it's the best of both worlds. I get to homeschool my children and I get to geek out over science with groups of kids every week! My oldest students have now graduated, and continued on to dual enrollment classes at ACC, and to 4-year universities using what they learned in my classes as the foundation for their success. It's been amazing to watch them soar, and to hear them tell me they're doing some of the same experiments in college that they did with me in high school.​
​
I live in Austin with my husband and kids. My two oldest children have graduated from homeschooling. My oldest child is double majoring in Biology and German at The University of Texas at Austin. My middle child is studying at ACC and plans to major in Exercise and Sports Science at Texas State University. My youngest child is in 8th grade. In addition, I have 2 cats: an adorable gray tabby named Kat and a mischievous Siamese named Sebastian.
​
When I'm not teaching, I am an avid reader of all genres. I enjoy knitting and will almost always have a sock in my purse to knit. I also love board games and traveling. And sometimes you can see me playing the cello on stage with the Parent Orchestra at The University of Texas' String Project.
