Personal:

During my time as an educator I also had the opportunity to teach students in my church organization.  I raised 5 successful children, and spend time with my 8 grandchildren.  I love music,  taking motorcycle trips with my husband, hiking, and spending time with family. I grew up in Utah, but have spent the last 30 years in the Mesquite/Bunkerville area and love it here.
