I have been a part of the Martin community for many years. First as a volunteer, secondly as a substitute teacher, and now as faculty.  My four children graduated from Martin.  I am proud to be a Warrior.   My goal in educating is to create a foundation for a lifetime of learning, and I work to help students understand the intricate meshing of geography, history, economics in today's world.  I also have the rare privilege of teaching students from all over the world in the English as a Second Language program, and I am grateful for all they have taught me over the years.
