Don’t be afraid to leave your mark….

I am an artist and my passion is education!I am a performer and my stage is the classroom. I am a musician and my instrument is my heart. I am a writer and my story is my experience.I am a unique individual and my calling is teaching!

“All the world's a stage,And all the men and women merely

players;They have their exits and their

entrances,And one man in his time plays many

parts,His acts being seven ages.”

William Shakespeare
