Media Staff

I am so happy to be the Media Specialist at Hollywood Elementary School. I want to tell you a little about myself. This year is my 28th year working for St. Mary's County Public Schools. I first started as a classroom teacher at G.W. Carver Elementary School. I taught Third Grade for one year and First Grade for five years. I then moved to Great Mills High School, where I was one of two Media Specialists. The next year I moved to Hollywood Elementary School, where I have been ever since. The 2023-24 school year is my 21st year at Hollywood.

I LOVE to read. My goal is to get my students to love reading as much as I do! I am always reading and I really try to keep my Twitter feed up to date with my reading!  Make sure you follow me on Twitter to keep up to date on new books and what is happening in the HES Library Media Center. I'm also going to try to start up my HES Library Media Center blog again. I'll post links to it in my Twitter feed and the monthly newsletters that I send out.

I love to travel with my parents. We enjoy visiting the National Parks around the United States. We have visited many parks:  Yellowstone NP, Glacier NP, Denali NP, Mt. Rushmore, the Badlands, Canyonlands NP, Arches NP, Mesa Verde NP and many many more! Though I do think that two of my favorite parks are Yellowstone and Glacier, but visiting Alaska and staying all the way inside Denali NP was pretty cool too. I absolutely  love taking photographs while we are visiting the parks! The picture above was taken right before we entered Mesa Verde NP. As you can see from my shirt, I am a Book Nerd!
