I was born in Warren, Ohio and moved to Florida in 1965. My family owned a restaurant and I enjoyed being there because I met so many interesting tourists.
My sister and I in Balboa Park in 2013!
I starting teaching at The Gillispie School in 1995 and taught second grade for many years. In 2008, I received a master's degree in Mathematics Education. Currently, I teach fourth grade and I am looking forward to a year filled with math, reading, California history, and much, much more.
