Greetings! 

A 26-year veteran of public education and a second year teacher here at Prep Classes, I have also taught in private schools, most recently at the Woodlands Preparatory Academy, the Andrew Rodman School, and the Esprit International School, all located in The Woodlands, TX.  I studied at Pacific Lutheran University in Spanaway, WA but graduated from the University of Washington in Seattle with a degree in French Language and Literature and a teaching minor in World Geography.  I am also certified to teach English and have taught all high school levels over the years, with an emphasis on senior level British Literature, a particular favorite. 

         In the classroom, I delight in seeing students learn and, hopefully enjoy doing so. That is not to say that work is not expected – I maintain high standards.  I desire for those students wishing to continue on to a college or university to leave my class prepared to do well, not only academically, but also to shine with integrity and joy.

     A mother of a now retired airman and the grandmother of three beautiful granddaughters, I read, dance, garden, and travel as much as possible.  Past forays include trips down both the Seine River in France and the Danube in eastern Europe, a week in Baie-St. Paul in Quebec, and a trip down the Rhine through the Netherlands, France, and Germany.  I look forward to my next adventure!
