Ms. Mouser graduated from UT Austin in 2007 and has taught science and Latin at Garza IHS for 17 years. She loves teaching at Garza and being able to meet students where they are. In her free time, she enjoys cooking, reading, watching way too much TikTok, finding new ways to torture Gen Z with their own slang, playing with her cat, Max, and her classroom assistant, Lemonade the Bearded Dragon. During break, she enjoys spending time with an ever-expanding gaggle of nieces and nephews. She's not even sure how many of them there are at this point. |
