Ms. Davis grew up in Mesquite schools and graduated from North Mesquite High School in 2000. She is the oldest of four children, and has always been a natural leader. Ms. Davis attended college at Texas A&M University and was granted the Terry Foundation Scholarship for an undergraduate degree in Accounting. She then went on to complete her Masters degree in Finance, graduating in May of 2005.
After college, Ms. Davis accepted a position with the prestigious Big 4 accounting firm KPMG. After working as a Tax Analyst at KPMG, TXU, and finally McAfee Inc., the anti-virus software giant, Ms. Davis decided to travel the world and to become a teacher.
In May 2009, Ms. Davis moved to Barcelona, Spain, where she completed her TEFL (Teaching English as a Foreign Language) certification. After a summer of traveling Europe, in September of 2009 Ms. Davis began teaching English at an all-boys middle school in Busan, South Korea. She taught in Korea for 9 months, returning home in summer 2010 to seek a position teaching Math, but when the Business position became available at West Mesquite, it was a perfect fit. Ms. Davis is a member of American Mensa and Toastmasters International.
Ms. Davis is incredibly excited to lead this group of explorers to success in her class this year.
