It's hard to believe that I am starting my 27th year of teaching Physical Education and my 18th year at WES!

I do believe I have the best job in the world!

I am very passionate about teaching fitness through fun activities that can be enjoyed for a lifetime! Healthy physical development is an important part of the total growth and development of children and  I feel very feel privileged to have the opportunity to teach your child during this exciting part of their lives.

As many of you know, I have a wonderful family. I am married and have 2 daughters who were once Panda students here at WES and are now in their 20's.

I have also taught Health and Motor Development. In December of 2012, I received a Masters Degree in Exercise Science and Physical Education from McDaniel College.

Running is my favorite form of exercise although I also enjoy swimming, skiing, biking and hiking.
