I'm a Christian who believes that faith in a loving God helps me to be a better person. I'm a wife and mother - my husband Bob and our son RW are the two biggest blessings in my life. Bob recently retired from Lockheed Martin of Fort Worth and RW is a 7th grader at MWJH. We live in the beautiful country outside of Perrin on 33 acres. We love our pets - two Irish Setters (Connor & Jenna), one Basenji (Libby), two cats (Boots & Dizzy), and a various assortment of wildlife like ducks, deer, and catfish (we feed our fish - and then we eat them!) Our favorite thing to do together is fish in the big pond located in our front yard and ride our OHVs (off-highway vehicles) in the mountains - we have a Polaris Razr and a Polaris Ranger. I am a life-long learner, meaning that I am driven to constantly learn new things, and I spend a lot of my time on the Internet exploring about how to use technology at school and in the classroom - it's my passion! I also enjoying reading - mostly history (WW II and ancient Rome are my favorites) - but also about educational topics like "The Middle School Mind," which taught me how to better understand the Jr. High kids I teach. I help out at my church when I can and support its community services like Wednesday night student tutoring and Opportunity Camp.
