I am the mother of two boys (actually young men now), both of whom attended Corpus Christi! I come from a BIG family (the youngest of nine!) and I believe that plays a huge part in my teaching philosophy. This will be my 12th year teaching full-time at Corpus, after substituting for a little while here and at a local high school. I earned my Bachelor of Science degree in Medical Technology from Bloomsburg University and Abington Memorial Hospital. My first job was in the Chemistry department at Abington Hospital, and then I moved on to work at a research/diagnostic company called Centocor in Malvern. While working in the lab there, I went back to school and eventually got my teaching certificate for Secondary Education, Biology, at West Chester University. I love the Corpus community and teaching here brings me great joy!
