Biography

I like anything from the 80’s except big hair: been there, done that, and over it.  I enjoy talking; loud and lots.  I do not like to stay still so I really enjoy being part of the classroom, meeting, or workshop.  I will help others in any way I can.  I respect those who work hard at giving to others instead of getting for themselves and do their job.  I am an advocate for those who cannot and do not always advocate for themselves.  My soap box is peer and natural support for everybody; don’t do for someone something they can do for themselves.  My job is all about teacher support and helping teachers to be the best they can be.  After all teacher success=student success.  I believe that ALL students can learn; we just need to teach in the way that they learn.  My motto in in life is “Life’s journey is not to arrive at the pearly gates safely in a well preserved body, but rather to slide through the gates sideways, totally worn out, shouting “Oh yeah, what a ride!”
