About Me

The written word fascinates me: how authors arrange words to affect our emotions, make memorable characters, or sway readers to another point of view. After more than 25 years in Christian education, I still enjoy introducing middle and high school students to good literature and helping them to find the right words for essays. I have a B.A. in English from St. Mary's College of Maryland and an M.A. in Education from Regent University. My teaching has included English for grades 6-12, American Literature, British Literature, AP Literature, DC British Literature, DC Composition and Rhetoric, and DC Literature and Composition. In addition to teaching, the moments I enjoy most with students are teaching them about preparing for college applications. My goal is to inspire each student to get excited about learning and opening doors for the future.
