I taught as a Language Arts/Reading Teacher for 11 years in the Broward County Public School System in Fort Lauderdale, FL.

I taught my first three years as a 7th/8th Language Arts/Reading Teacher at Sunrise Middle School in Fort Lauderdale, FL. Afterwards, I transferred to Ramblewood Middle School in Coral Springs, FL, where I taught seven years as a 6th/7th grade Language Arts/Reading Teacher.

This school year will be my 13th year as a 7/8 Language Arts teacher at MMS.

Biography:

I am originally from the Coconut Creek, FL area. Due to my late husband's job relocation opportunity through the Maxwell Air Force Base, we relocated to Millbrook, AL. Also, I have a 16-year-old daughter, who attends ASMS in Mobile, AL, as a junior.

Currently, I have been residing in the Millbrook, AL area for 12 years now. I have become very comfortable with my new home- ALABAMA.
