About Me……

 

I am a happily married, crazy science teacher and coach, who loves to run, sail, swim, bike, golf, snorkel, travel, backpack, play chess, play tennis, watch movies, play PS2 and X-Box, and hang with friends and family.

 

Believe it or not, I graduated from WMC in 1997.  After graduating, I attended college at the University of Delaware, and obtained a bachelor of science in Environmental Science and minors in chemistry and geology.  After college, I was hired as an environmental scientist for an environmental consulting company in Wilmington, DE.  Although the field science was very interesting, I had not discovered my passion in life.  After two years of working for the environmental company, I decided I wanted to teach science.  I taught my first year down in Hillsborough and then returned to my alma—mater.  This is my fourth year teaching physics in the science department, coaching girl’s cross country and indoor track, and second year coaching girl’s spring track.
