Hello and welcome to my website.  I am really anxious to get to know all of you.  I was born in Erie, Pennsylvania on the shores of Lake Erie.  I spent many years working in the private sector and taught medical terminology and medical transcription in community colleges before going to Youngstown State University and obtaining my English Degree.  I grew up attending Catholic schools and taught for seven years at Tucson High

 I moved here in 2001 to escape the Ohio winters with their cold temperatures and several feet of snow.  

Hobbies and interests:

I love to read.

I love to play tennis after thirty years of USTA tennis playing and competing.

I minored in motion pictures in college--favorite film- Casablanca                            

Love sports - Baseball and football in particular

Favorite sports teams- The Cleveland Indians, Cleveland Browns.

I look forward to learning with you here at Salpointe and sincerely hope this web page is helpful to all of you.

FYI - I'm usually in the classroom (710) at 7:00 AM if you ever need to see me.  You may also schedule an appointment after school.
