I attended Texas Tech University where I earned a certificate as the teacher of the Visually Impaired. I obtained my Masters degree from Redding University in special Education focusing in visual impairment. I received my bachelor degree from Central Missouris State University in All level Physical Education.

I have almost 30 years teaching experience. Thirteen years Elementary PE, Thirteen years Teacher of the visually Impaired, the remainder of my teaching has taken place in special education from PPCD & life skills to inclusion support.
