Courses Taught:
Science and History
I have taught 5th grade for 19 years at Wetumpka Middle School, and I love teaching students! I especially enjoy science because I love experimenting, and watching students get excited about learning new things!
I have been married for 43 years, and I have 3 grown children (Andrew, Amber and Adam). I also have 3 granddaughters (Isabelle, Elisabeth and Eilidh). I live in Eclectic, and have 1 dog and 3 cats. I enjoy gardening, snorkeling and traveling. My favorite place to be is at the beach!
I earned both my Bachelor of Science and Master's Degrees from Auburn University, Montgomery.
