Over the past 19 years, I have taught language in many settings (preschool, K-12, community college, and university) both in the U.S. and overseas. I love learning about people, places, and cultural identity. My husband and I lived in Armenia for two years, where I taught English and was a teacher trainer for the Peace Corps. I have also worked for nonprofit organizations in Latin America, spending extended periods in Ecuador, Honduras, and Nicaragua. I love traveling, and I've been to Spain, England, Eastern Europe, and Kenya, in addition to most of the U.S. states. I took a few years off of teaching to stay home with my four children. This is my fifth year with Tumwater School District.
