Hi! I am Daniela from MathTexas :)
After earning my degree in mathematics, I began my career by teaching high-risk students at an urban high school in San Antonio, Texas. Currently, I hold the position of a math support specialist, where I am responsible for creating customized math resources for middle school students. In this role, I collaborate closely with teachers to design student-centered learning experiences that align with the TEKS.
My mission is to create engaging TEKS-aligned math resources so you can focus on your students instead of the STAAR test. Over the years, I have dedicated myself to the in-depth study of the vertical and horizontal alignment of Math TEKS and have analyzed every single released test question to design resources that prepare students for success.

Initially, I didn't consider myself a math person until an exceptional professor helped me discover the beauty of mathematics. My passion for the subject motivated me to work hard, as a result, I graduated summa cum laude from the University of Texas at San Antonio. I continue to study math and hone my craft as a curriculum writer. My goal is to inspire students to discover a love of mathematics.
Most importantly ... I am the proud mother of 3 teenage girls and a toddler :)
