About me:

I'm a "Third-Culture Kid" which means even though I'm a born Michigander, I didn't grow up here.  In fact, I spent most of my elementary & HS years in Hong Kong, where my family lived for over 25 years.  I came back to MI for college and met that guy (⬅️). We have been married for 26 years.

When some friends of mine came up with the idea to start a charter school, I hopped on board.  I'm an original BLS member.  I began aiding in the classroom and 6 years ago decided it was time to be a real-life teacher like my mom, dad and BOTH my sisters are. It took a while, but it was a great decision and the rest is history!
