I have been teaching at Pleasant Valley for 23 years. During that time, I was an instructional aide, developmental first grade teacher, and a first grade teacher. I am married and have two stepsons, a step daughter-in-law, a son, and a daughter. Most of my free time is spent exercising, cleaning my house, and driving my children to practices or games. When I do finally settle down, I like to watch movies and pet my dogs.
