About Me:
I grew up in a small town in Idaho. I remember when computer classes consisted of learning DOS prompts. Oy. I am a nerd. I love reading. I love learning. Google is my best friend. I try to instill this same love of learning in my children and students. I am married to one sweet guy. I have two adorable children. And I would adopt a number of my students if I were a millionaire and could afford the house to keep them all in :)

Why Do I Teach?:
