Life Outside the Shark Tank
Life Outside the Shark Tank
When I'm not in the classroom being a teacher, I'm a mom to my 8-year-old son who is a third grader at Ocean Air this year. My family enjoys being outside, taking hikes with our dog, Ruby, and swimming at the beach. We love to travel to faraway places and seek adventure. As a Philadelphia native, I also enjoy spending time on the East Coast with my family and friends. I especially love places with snow!
