Bio: I have been a 7th grade life science teacher for the past 20 years. Before that I was a para-pro in kindergarten and taught 6th/7th grade at the local Christian school. I have been happily married for many years and have two grown daughters. My oldest daughter teaches special education locally and my youngest daughter is the district manager of several restaurants in Atlanta. I like animals and have quite a collection in my classroom, ranging from a bearded dragon to hissing cockroaches.
