Words of Wisdom
I grew up in Spokane, Washington and graduated from Gonzaga Preparatory in 1982. I have attended
multiple colleges and universities: I have a bachelor’s degree from Eastern Washington University, a
teaching degree from the University of Washington, a master’s degree in Business and Organizational
leadership from Chapman University and special education certifications from Seattle University.
I have been teaching for 20 years; in addition, I worked as a national reading consultant for five years. I
provided instruction to teachers and building administrators on methods of reading instruction in grades
K-6 throughout the United States.
While teaching is my passion, travel is a close second. Exploring the world and experiencing other
cultures is a vital part of what makes me happy. I have been married for almost 38 years and we have
one son; he is a helicopter pilot in the US Coast Guard. We are a blessed family.
My motto is, “If you have to choose between being kind and being right, choose to be kind and you will
always be right”.
