After years of acting I changed gears. Then came love, then came marriage, then came my baby in the baby carriage. I still wanted a higher degree, so I got my Masters in Education. Does this mean my child could go to school with me every day!? ❤️ I was able to check in on my little guy and do my job! This quickly became a career I loved! I feel pride and accomplishment daily. The characters I play for my students now are the most award winning ones and my school is the best!!!

There are so many!! think each year I have one. The moment when a kiddo “gets it” after the struggle. I am overjoyed when students return to me after years telling me thank you or how’ I made a difference in their life. Recently, one came to tell me that I was the reason he went music school. :) Seeing my former babies go on to do big things is an incredible feeling. On the same note, seeing some just progress to the next grade level is amazing. All growth and change is memorable.

I would first buy this current group a party!!! They love food! I would then help my son with college tuition. I desperately need a new fence and a bathroom remodel!? I am not sure how far I can stretch this, but I would try!!
