As I begin my 9th year of teaching, I continue to hope that all of my
students rise to (and above) the challenge I put in front of them daily.
This year is my ninth year teaching and seventh at Trumbull High. College
Prep Algebra I, Advanced College Prep Precalculus, and Calculus Honors is my
teaching schedule for the 2008-2009 school year.
One of my nephews has served two tours in IRAQ and is completing his service
to the US Marine Corps in Novemeber of 2008. Semper Fi. One of my niece's
is a junior attending Central Connecticut State University. I retired from
competitive softball this year. I enjoyed a summer workshop in Philadelphia
about Engineering. Last year, I chaperoned a trip to Italy with the THS
Chorus. I enjoyed my fourth trip out of the U.S.A. My favorite performers
on my IPOD are Billy Joel, Boyz II Men, David Roth, Garth Brooks, Michael
Buble, and Pink.
I enjoy spending time at Disney World (which I have visited 12 times in my
life) and traveling. I am planning to spend this holiday season at Disney
World. In 2001, I traveled cross-country via AMTRAK (to Seattle) then on to
my dream location to teach, Alaska. In high school, I was an All-State
Softball player. I also enjoy to play sports of all types and watch them
too. My favorite team to watch is the New York Yankees. I have enjoyed
watching them play until October every year, including this year (I hope)!
In November 2003, I was inducted into Stratford High's Athletic Hall of Fame
for volleyball, basketball, and softball. As only the fifth female
inductee, I was honored to earn this distinction. I went to Stratford High
School and earned the All-State honor during my senior year (1993) for
catching. I batted .521 and hit 10 homeruns my senior year in 20 games. At
Stratford High, I hold the record for # of homeruns, # of triples, # of
hits, slugging percentage, batting average, # of RBI's, etc.
