Teaching science, social studies, and technology to first-graders at Sinclair Elementary is what I love to do. Sinclair is a small neighborhood school, situated on a beautiful campus which is located in the heart of Houston, Texas---the fourth largest city in the United States.
I am very lucky to have two daughters, Stacey and Meredith, one son, Jimmy, a daughter-in-law, Lisa, two sons-in-law, Scott and James, two granddaughters, Jessica and Danielle, two grandsons Parker and Paxton and scores of nieces and nephews in Missouri. I also have one cat named Mr. Cat.
In my spare time, I enjoy reading, writing, taking pictures, gardening, hiking and camping. But my favorite hobby is traveling because I enjoy learning about history and discovering how people live in other parts of the world. In addition to traveling extensively throughout the United States, I have visited France, Italy, Greece, Egypt, Australia and most recently Scotland. I love the outdoors and have spent extended time at the beach in all of those countries. When I am home, I also like to listen to music and create mini movies (through a concept called digital storytelling) about my travels and the lives of other people. Sometimes I submit my stories to magazines for publication.
Ever since I was very small, I have spent as much time as possible out of doors. That is also why I like to teach science, camp and hike. It helps me to feel part of nature. I am very serious about protecting the environment. I teach my grandchildren, my nieces and nephews, and my students the importance of conserving our earth’s natural resources and recycling whenever possible.
I am excited about returning to school this year because I particularly take pleasure in helping students discover how wonderful and unique they truly are. I look forward to fostering their thirst for knowledge, promoting good citizenship and involving them in becoming caretakers of our precious planet.
