I welcome the opportunity to lead side by side in supporting professionals in continuing education and educating our future leaders. As an experienced classroom and online language educator comfortable in creating, editing, and proofing non-legal copy, I value the opportunity to demonstrate what is possible in these educational pursuits. Public speaking, creative writing, and expression in digital media are all close companions in this wild, roller-coaster virtual world we currently reside. Let's tackle the challenges of today head-on and embrace the options that we are given as challenges that we shall master!

Interests

Advocating for mental and physical health is of prime importance especially now in an isolated virtual world where so many need to come together for virtual hugs. As educators, we never stop learning or teaching; therefore, let us all go forth and do what we can to nurture healthy ideals and lifestyles.
