I am not your typical image or personality when you first think of a teacher. I think that is what really sets me apart. I lived life sort of backwards. I have two beautiful grown children who are productive members of society. I was in nursing for 14 years when I went back to college to be a teacher. I got married later in life to my best friend. I am a firm believer in respect, both showing and giving it. I truly love what I do and I think that is what makes a big difference. EVERYONE has a talent and can provide important input into life and I am here to help your kid find their special talents and run with it. I am looking forward to the 24-25 school year and getting to know a new group of kiddos.
