I am excited about the opportunity  to be your 6th grade math teacher.   Just think, at the end of this school year, you are halfway to High School Graduation!

So, who am I and why do I spend so much class time discussing the importance of  taking ownership, being responsible, core values,  making good choices, and the importance of math?   ...... Well, I am glad you asked. 

First, I am  the  proud mother of one fantastic daughter  who lives  between Seattle Washington and  Atlanta Ga.  In addition to loving my role as a mom, I have spent the majority of my life volunteering in the field and serving on boards of several local and national organizations. 

Teaching represents my 3rd  professional career change.  Before becoming a teacher, I held various leadership roles in 3 other industries: I was an Assistant VP at a Regional Bank in the midwest; Purchasing Manager at General Motors Automotive, and Strategic Procurement Manager at GE Gas Turbine.

In 2018, I began my lifelong dream  of teaching middle school mathematics.

To all my students, I am Godly proud to play a small  role as you continue  your victorious journey  toward high school graduation!
