I am a 1986 graduate of SWCS, yes, I am a former Trojan! I grew up in the
Jamestown/Lakewood area. After high school I attended JCC for 2 years, then
Buffalo State College where I received my Bachelor's and Master's Degree in
Business and Distributive Education. I did my student teaching at City
Honors in Buffalo and then began my teaching career at Fredonia Central
School. This is my 18th year teaching Business Education at Fredoina.
When I began, I taught career skills in the Middle School and business
classes in the High School. For the past several years, I have been teaching
in the High School only, and now I am happy to say I'll be back once again
for part of my day in the Middle School for the 2012-2013 school year
teaching 5th and 6th grade computers.
I currently live in Hamburg with my husband Mike and nephew Garrett.
Garrett, who is from Virginia, has lived with us since he was a sophomore in
high school. He graduated from Frontier HS in 2010 and is currently
attending his 3rd year at Canisius College on a full baseball scholarship.
We are very proud of his accomplishments!
When I am not teaching, I enjoy exercising and running, reading, traveling,
listening to music, watching sporting events, and spending time with friends
and family. My favorite teams are the Bills, Sabres, and Yankees. I just
recently started running and have participated in the Buffalo Half Marathon
for the past four years. This summer I also participated in several trail
runs and did the Sky High Adventure Park at Holiday Valley. I also traveled
to Jackson Hole, WY and climbed the Grand Teton Mountains and went to a
Chicago Cubs game in Chicago.
