[edit] Just The Facts
Job Facts
I am a third grade teacher at a fabulous school called Morikami Park Elementary.
Home Facts
I am originally from Bensalem, Pennsylvania- which is a small suburb of Philadelphia. I lived there for 24 years before following my mom to Tamarac, Florida. While I lived with her, I was lucky enough to meet my wonderful boyfriend, Chris and I moved into his home in Boca Raton, FL.
Recently, I moved back to Boca Raton after spending 1 1/2 years in Charlotte, North Carolina where I purchased my first home. I am about to become a landlord which is exciting and scary at the same time.
Education Facts
I graduated from Temple University with a degree in Communications. I began taking masters level courses in elementary education before my first move to Florida. Luckily, Florida makes it very easy for want-to-be teachers to become certified so I gained employment and finished the required courses and took the required tests to become a certified teacher. Not wanting to spend my life in the classroom, I find myself in the FSU School Media Specialist program today!
[edit] Free Time
Though free time is hard to come by, I like to spend what time I have:
- taking cycling classes, practicing yoga, and conditioning with weight training
- visiting beaches throughout South Florida
- spending time with family members
- playing with my loving Golden Retriever, Brandon
