Hobbies

I love teaching. It has been my passion for as long as I can remember. I also consider myself to be a lifelong learner. I love learning and discovering new things. In my spare time, I love to read, do yoga, cook, and swim. My new puppy loves to be at dog park and so when I am not working, I can be found there reading a good book! I also am an advanced certified scuba diver!
