At DCS Since:
2004
Experience Since:
1987
I became a teacher because...
I love to connect people to music.
My most memorable moments in teaching...
The day that SOAR (high school choir) sight-read a new piece of music in solfege in 4-parts. Awesome!
Favorite thing about DCS:
The opportunity to praise God with our entire lives. When I was with the public schools I had to be somewhat careful about the music I chose and about my conversation. It is so much fun to relax and be open about my love for God.
When not at school, I enjoy...
My family, cheering at Arvin's soccer games, planting and nurturing flowers.
I am currently learning...
About new electronic tools like digital recorders and CD burning.
My students do not know that I...
I am a certified scuba diver.
