Welcome!  The 2009-2010 school year is upon us.  This calendar year finds me once again teaching freshmen and seniors.  This will be my 7th year at Northgate.

A little about me - I love reading anything I can get my hands on - British literature, contemporary fiction, multi-cultural fiction, non-fiction, and increasingly, shorter non-fiction essays.  I hope to inspire the same love of reading and while not everyone loves to write, I will work hard with each and every one of you to grow as both a reader and a writer. 

Nuts and Bolts:
