Welcome

This is my 27th year of teaching.  I began teaching in the Fountain Valley School District in 1998, and have taught 4th and 5th grade. I am an animal lover and I love to travel.  I have seen Asia, Europe, South Africa, and many other places.  I am married and have two step-children.  I am also a step-grandma to four grandkids!
