Teacher Bio:
In June 2023 I retired from the brick-and-mortar school. I had worked all over the state in K-12 schools. I had hard moments and fantastic moments. I have had successes and defeats. I have been in schools I loved and some I didn't. I have been in schools where I was happy to start and others where I knew that leaving was the right choice. All in all, I have learned and grown in every place I have worked. I bring all those experiences to my online classroom.
At one point, I was sad that with the online format, I would not be able to get to know my students in a deep and solid way. I have been so pleasantly surprised. I love seeing the growth in my students. I am so proud to see them work hard, struggle appropriately, and make great strides in their French proficiency and love of the culture.
As for my family, I have been married for almost 27 years. We adopted two children from Guatemala, Carlos in 2002 and Claire in 2004. Carlos works as an assistant manager at Menards and Claire is a junior at UW-Madison. She is going to be spending her junior year in the Netherlands and I must say that I am equally excited and distraught at her being gone. Full disclosure, we already have plans to visit in November!
