Please allow me to introduce myself!
I am a veteran educator with a passion for writing, traveling, and digital media.
What value can I offer you?
My experience in the classroom will be a valuable asset to the right team. I think like a teacher because I am a teacher! I also believe travel is a valuable part of education for both the young and the young at heart. In addition, I am an experienced bookkeeper so I understand the importance of financial gain through good marketing. You just provide the details and I'll provide the creative magic!
Here’s my background condensed to a few bullet points.
