M. A. in English from St. Mary's University in San Antonio, TX
Experience:
Prior to returning to teaching in 2000, I managed portfolios of properties for numerous entities both private and governmental for manyyears. I bring a unique perspective to the classroom of the skills/abilities required for not only the college-bound student but also the workplace-bound individuals.
In my free time -- besides reading, cooking, tennis, kayaking, and grandchildren -- I enjoy travelling and have had opportunities from experiencing Siberia (above the Arctic Circle) to China -- and many points in between. This past summer a Native American friend and I travelled over 4,000 thousand miles throughout the West "without reservations" visiting points of fascinating interest. We have a remarkable country.
Quotes:

"The important thing is not to stop questioning."

"The whole world opened to me when I learned to read."
-- Mary McLeod Bethune
