Biography

I've taught English for twelve years at a National Blue Ribbon school. I'm certified to teach language arts and history, although I've never gotten around to teaching history. In my English department, I'm a curriculum team leader and the SAT prep teacher. I'm also Nationally Board Certified to teach English. I've published a number of flash fiction stories and some poetry just because I adore the English language, which is why I've never taken a job teaching history classes (although I adore history, too). There is nothing quite as much fun as teaching kids the real court politics of Edward II/Edward III right before going into the Canterbury Tales. ;)
