I am the teacher of the Deaf at Mann middle school. I've been teaching for 32 years and love seeing students grow. I have taught grades pre-K through 8th grade. I also train Guide Dogs for the Blind.  My current puppy is a yellow lab named, Olema. I recently built my new house and love it.  I love painting, sewing and a variety of crafts.  I also love nature and enjoy letterboxing.  I have 2 grown children and 2 grandchildren.  My daughter and grandchildren live with me in my new home.
