Ms. Martinez is a native of San Antonio, TX, and earned an undergraduate degree in Electrical Engineering from Texas A&M University. While she was in college, she enjoyed working with students and mentoring freshman engineers. She worked as an engineer for 1.5 years before realizing she missed working with students. When the opportunity to teach at CSSM popped up, she jumped at the opportunity and made a career switch into teaching. This is her first year teaching middle school math and science at CSSM. When she is not in the classroom, she can be found paddle boarding at Lady Bird Lake, hiking along the Barton Creek Greenbelt, or traveling around the U.S. to visit her friends.
