I graduated from Georgian Court College in May 1999 at age 40.  I chose to major in Special Education because I love working with children especially middle school age students.  Science was my second major in college.  I love teaching Science because it is a wonderful opportunity to engage students in learning using hands on activities. Prior to teaching I was an LPN in North Carolinia for 12 years.  I have always had a love for Science specifically Biology.

I begain my career in teaching by teaching elementary school K-4 self contained special education.  I taught 1 year at Forked River School and 2 years at Cedar Creek School. I enjoyed teaching K-4, but my desire has always been to teach middle school students.
