Hi everyone! I am originally from Indiana, land of corn, the Indy 500 and basketball. I went to Butler University (Indianapolis) where I received a B.A. in Modern History. I moved to California in 1996 and earned my M.A. in Modern European History from UCR. I live in Riverside with my husband, daughter, Golden Retriever and cat. We love traveling (pre-Covid!), gardening, and new adventures. This is my 23rd year of teaching and my 14th year at Vista. I love what I do and I love our community! Go Ravens!
