A little about me:
I was born here in Brunswick, grew up and attended school in Darien, GA. I was the 1st person in my immediate family to graduate high school, as well as to go to college. I retired from teaching High School Mathematics in 2018 from Brunswick High School after 30 years; the same year my daughter graduated from Glynn Academy. In 2022, I started at Glynn Academy as a half-day Special Education teacher and have been learning about the expectations and beauty of working with students who learn math a bit differently from my past students. This is my second year in this position and I have enjoyed interacting with students on a daily basis again. I substituted and filled in for friends from 2018 until starting at GA, but that is not the same as having your own students which I love. I have 4 children and 1 grandchild; my children range from 38 years old to 7 years old. My oldest son graduated from BHS and is a Mechanical Engineer working at Georgia Tech; my 23 year old daughter graduated from GA and is a CNA at the local hospital; my 20 year old son graduated from Coastal Plains Charter High School and is attending college in Atlanta and my youngest son is starting 1st grade locally. Piper, Nala and Scout are my 3 dogs that along with my family make my life fun and full.
