I am a retired pediatric nurse, veteran homeschool mom, and an early childhood education specialist. 

During those years as a military family, my husband and I wanted to have an active influence on our children's education, so we chose to homeschool them from elementary through high school. Through various co-ops, I got involved in teaching children of other homeschool families and I loved it!  It afforded me the opportunity to be directly involved in how and what my children were learning while giving me a chance to grow professionally and help other homeschool families.

I have more than 16 years teaching experience for grades K - 12, in young adult and adult education.  
My philosophy is simple...teach from the heart, with passion and boundless conviction and never place a child in a box.
