I'm a lover of animals, books, food, and nature. I dabble in photography, scrapbooking, gardening, writing, and whatever else looks interesting to me at the time! One of my favorite things to do is to travel to used bookstores. I live with my dog and two cats and I volunteer with local animal rescues in my free time. This is my 24th year of teaching in the Austintown Local School District. I am licensed to teach language arts (4-9), literacy/reading (K-12), and special education (K-12).
