Welcome to
MY PORTFOLIO
I’m a learning designer passionate about turning lemons into lemonade (and most importantly teaching the recipe, so others can do the same!)
The Short & Sweet
Here you can find some quick information about me, what gets me out of bed in the morning (sorry, it’s not coffee) and my daily mission in life.
Who am I? I’m just a military brat who has settled down in Houston, TX. I love helping people. I’m crazy about gardening and corgis. I’m always pumped to read research involving science and communication.

"Professor Butler is amazing! I have learned so much about myself from her teachings. She is readily available to her students and she is greatly approachable. She is makes herself available when needed. Her down to earth attitude does not take away from her professionalism. It has been a great experience for me in her class."

"Dear Ms. Butler, Thank you for being my math teacher. I am so grateful to have you, and so does everyone else. Without a math teacher, we wouldn’t have half the knowledge that we have right now! I love the theme of the classroom, and it is very calming. Thank you for being my teacher!”

“I know a people have complaints about Ms.Butler but those are the people that slack off/talk during class. She strives to help and encourage her students. She is so nice and approachable. I will never forget when I was outside during my free period working on physics and she stopped what she was doing just to help me. She explains things clearly and has extreme patience though my class is very talkative. Doing the cornell notes was super helpful because writing down notes helps retain information. I feel very welcomed and safe in this learning environment. I'm super excited to finish off the year with her.”
