Being educated isn't easy and neither is life without an education. It is my hope that you realize that you can do anything that you put your mind to with a little bit of help and a whole lot of practice. My goal is to help you meet success and to help you understand that you can have fun while learning new and frustrating material.

Hobbies

I love all things creative and I use this love of creativity to teach kids how to create academically strong work. I currently am the coordinator of the school band, fashion program, and a senior advisor. When I'm not at work I design t-shirts and hoodies for local sports teams and organizations. You may catch me torching some metals for jewelry-making or designing/sewing something new. I also love, love, love, to read and being silly with my family...those are my favorite hobbies of all!!
