I have enjoyed teaching for the past seven years. I taught second grade for the first five years of my teaching career in Seminole and Volusia counties. I taught third grade at Rymfire Elementary for the last two years. I am excited to be in first grade at Rymfire Elementary. I received my Bachelor's of Science in Elementary Education at the University of Central Florida. I moved to Orlando in 1997 after I graduated High School. I was born and raised in Las Vegas, Nevada. When I am not teaching and doing "school work" I enjoy reading, boating, snorkeling, going to the beach, traveling, and dancing. I live in Ormond Beach. I have a boxer named Bones and a salt water fish tank. Below is a picture of Bones when he was a puppy.
Here are some photographs I took this summer while visiting and snorkling with my underwater camera in the Florida Keys.
