I have taught elementary school students for 24 years. It has been the joy of my life. I am now retired and am excited to continue making a difference in the lives of my students. I have a Masters Degree in Elementary Education from the University of Florida. Go Gators! I was born and raised in Massachusetts, but have lived all over the world. I love to travel and learn new things. I was honored to be teacher of the year at my school and have always received positive feedback from my students and parents. Students always had fun learning in my class and they knew I cared about them and their success. My greatest achievement is my own two children. My daughter is a high school counselor and my son works for the Peace Corps. I couldn't be more proud of their success, but I'm even more proud that they are happy and are making a difference in the world too. I look forward to meeting you and beginning our journey.
