I am a Northerner by birth, but a Southerner by choice! I was
born and raised in Beaver Falls, PA, which is about 40 miles north of
Pittsburgh. I began my education at Edinboro State College in Erie, PA with a
double major in Art and Music. I continued my education at Kennesaw State
College, as it was called then, where I received my Bachelor of Science and
Masters Degrees in Early Childhood Education. I am currently "considering"
furthering my education by pursuing my Specialist's Degree.
My first teaching experience in GA was at Powers Ferry Elementary, where I
taught second grade for two years and third grade for three years. In 2000, I
transferred to Mountain View Elementary, where I taught fourth grade for two
years, and am now in my nineth year in fifth grade.
I have two children. Andrew is 29, a graduate of Savannah College of
Art and Design, and is the Lead Graphic Designer for Designs by Lolita. You
may have seen his glassware in Macy's and various other gift stores.
Christopher, 26, is in the U.S. Coast Guard. His first assignment was on the
CG Cutter Boutwell. His ship circumnavigated the globe with the mission of
fighting Somalian pirates! His next tour of duty was in Alaska on the Bering
Sea, where his ship was responsible for protecting the King Crab fishermen
featured on The Deadliest Catch! He is now stationed at a small boat station
in Vallejo, CA, where he assigned to Search and Rescue and Law Enforcement on
San Pablo Bay.
In my spare time I love to read! Mysteries, mixed with a little comedy, are
my favorites. Some of my favorite authors are Stieg Larsson, Janet
Evanovich, Jodi Piccoult, Nicolas Sparks, Harlan Coben, Patricia Cornwell,
and Carl Hiaason. On warm, sunny weekends, I enjoy kayaking the rapids of
Georgia's beautiful rivers and antique shopping in small "never heard of"
towns. My newest adventures are hiking and biking, and rock climbing with a
local group of outdoor lovers.
