Hi Everyone,
I earned my degree from Brigham Young University in Utah. This is my 34th year in the district. I started teaching Science when we had a Junior High school in 1986, I worked there for over 2 years. I transferred to Perris High School and taught, Life Science, Biology, and Health. I was the Club Advisor for Key Club for 25 years. I was the Co-advisor for Friday Night Live for 5 years and and was the teacher for ASB for 1 year. I later transferred to the Academy for 1 year and taught Independent study and continued teaching it at Scholar + for 3 more years.
