Fun Facts

I love words and enjoy working with professional writers as a developmental and line editor. I was raised by a gifted musician and an artist, and my childhood revolved around theatre production and performance. In retirement, my grandchildren are at the center of my life.

About Me

I am a retired public school teacher living in a small town in Texas, which does not mean that I am small-minded. I have a wide range of interests focused primarily in humanities.

Experience

I have 26 years of experience in the English, history, theatre, and humanities classrooms, (including AP and dual credit), and have worked as an AP English tutor during the summer months. I have worked on virtually every aspect of theatre production over a period of 60 years.

Approach

I was raised by educators who were a part of the local community, and while I did not excel in every course, I had the help I needed to succeed. However, as an educator myself, I found the greatest fulfillment in breaking down concepts for struggling students and finding better ways to communicate and teach those ideas.
