I received my bachelor of science in elementary education from the University of South Florida. Go Bulls! I have added primary education and English to speakers of other languages (ESOL) to my Professional Educator's Certificate. I have been teaching here at Minneola Charter since 1998. I have taught Kindergarten, 2nd Grade and VPK here at Minneola. I have also taught 1st Grade and Preschool before becoming a Mustang. I am married and have two daughters, Katelyn and Kathryn. Katelyn just graduated from Lake Minneola High School and is attending Santa Fe in Gainesville. Kathryn is a junior at Lake Minneola High School. We have a toy Australian Shepherd named Murphy. Murphy will be 9 this year. I love spending time with my family, boating, reading and collecting sea shells. I am very excited to start a new year with our mini mustangs! VPK 2024 here we come...
