What is your favorite subject?

 

I like to teach all of the subjects, but when I was in school my favorite was writing.  Now I also really

enjoy curling up with a good book!

Where did you grow up?

 

I moved around a lot since my dad was in the Navy.  When I was in 4th grade I went to school in    Maryland for the first half of the year and I finished fourth grade in Colorado.  When I was in seventh grade we moved to Spokane where I lived until I finished college.  I graduated from Ferris High School in Spokane and got my teaching degree from Eastern Washington University in Cheney.

I love playing with and watching my children.  When I have time, I like to work out at the gym.  I also enjoy camping and hiking.  I enjoy watching baseball and football games.  I also like to take road trips around Washington and Oregon.
