I was born in Pennsylvania and moved to Coquille, OR when I was nine.  A year later I moved to Eugene. I have been a substitute teacher at Olum since September of 2018. I have worked in early childhood education for over 30 years. My favorite thing about being with children is watching them learn and develop. It is so rewarding to see them learn new things.  In my free time my husband and I like to cook and go for long drives and discover new places.  I have three children and a big family that I love.
