As a military brat, I lived on 3 continents and 4 different states before the age of 12. My experiences gave me great stories to share with my students. I love it when they ask me if I have a story to go with the lesson-and I usually do! I've been married for 35 years to my best friend. I have 1 incredible son, the BEST daughter-in-law, and 3 fabulous grandkids that I spoil every chance I get. I'm retired now, but I loved teaching-it never felt like a job. It always felt like an adventure!
