Summary
I have spent 39 years perfecting the craft of teaching in the Hamilton County School system. Working with my peers at the school level and the county level allows me to continue to grow as an educator.
I am excited to be in the classroom with students. I truly believe that all students can learn math. My favorite time of year occurs after Christmas when students' skills come together and they are excited by their own knowledge.

Photography
At the age of 50 I decided that I wanted to learn Photography. My husband bought my first "real" camera. I had no idea how to use all those buttons. I took 3 photography classes at Chattanooga State to learn the basics. I am still learning.
