Additional Information

My earliest and most steadfast dreams were to teach and to work as a bookseller in an independent bookstore. Having taught for many years, I’ve met my first goal. Now, I aspire to achieve my second goal as a member of the Still North team. I am seeking part-time employment (10-15 hours/week) and am fairly flexible with days and times.
