Welcome to the start of what is going to be an exciting semester!!  I bet that you don't realize that you are already an EXPERT in the field of Economics...in fact you live it everyday.  This class is going to help you connect you vast previous knowledge to the wonderful world of Economics!!! 

A Little About Me...

I am so excited for the start of another great school year!  This is my sixth year at the Medina County Career Center where I teach Economics and Government.  I have my BA.Ed. in Integrated Social Studies for grades 7-12 from the University of Akron.  In December I earned my M.Ed. as an Intervention Specialist for grades K-12 from Ashland University.  To say the least, I am a lifelong learner, so who knows what degree I will tackle next!  I live here in the Medina area with my family, which includes my husband, 1 year old son and two dogs.
