I am a high school mathematics teacher at County Prep HIgh School in Jersey City, New Jersey. It took me over 24 years , five colleges, and three states to earn a bachelor's degree. Teaching has allowed me to combine my love of math and my love of children.
I am pursuing a master's degree in Educational Technology and I will graduate in May 2006. Fortunately this degree will be completed in three years. I feel that education should be a life-long process; it helps a person stay young and healthy.
Travel and gardening are two of my favorite leisure time activities. This summer I will return to California to visit friends and family. A part of my heart is in that beautiful state; I lived there for 20 years. I am looking forward to the sparkling beaches, gorgeous sunsets, and being a part of the Disneyland 50th Anniversary celebration.

It is my firm belief that all students have the ability to reach the highest goals attainable. If a student is motivated and treated with respect and fairness they will reach their full potential. I expect all students to do their best and I model this by being the best I can be each and every day.
The enthusiasm for teaching that I possess will convey my excitement to my students. This will in turn produce an excitement for learning. Ultimately I will have transferred the responsibility of life-long learning to those I teach. Then I will know that my students possess the tools to reach their goals and follow their dreams.
