I am beginning my 31^st year of teaching, my 25^th year at William Cullen Bryant SchooI.  I graduated from Cleveland State University with a degree in Special Education.  I have a Master’s Degree in the Art of Teaching from Marygrove College.  I also have a Reading Certification from John Carroll University.  I have worked with grades K-4 and most recently with grades 4-8 in my current position as Educational Specialist AU/MD.  I have four children, two girls and two boys.  Two of my children are working as teachers, one works in a bank, and the other works for the Animal Protective League.  I enjoy spending time with my grandchildren, photography, and hiking in the Metroparks.
