Biography: |
I have lived in Glendora for almost
30 years, and grew up in San Gabriel, where I attended parochial
schools, and graduated from Mission HS. My senior class was the first “all
girls” graduating class.
I come from a family of 11 children, (yes, you read it right),
and I have 7 brothers and 3 sisters.
I have been a parent at Sellers school since 1985. I am married
to a wonderful man, whose name is George. We have four children whose names are Matthew, Cory, Sarah, and Lauren.
Matt graduated from UCLA a couple of years ago and hopes to have his own sports-related business someday. Our next oldest son, Cory, is a student at Azusa
Pacific University. He is a double major in sociology and biblical studies. Our daughter, Sarah, currently working full time and going to college.
Our daughter Lauren is now at GHS, plays GYS soccer, and is on
the GHS Cross Country team. She loves it!
I
enjoy anything that involves creativity and working with my hands, whether playing the piano or working in the garden. I sew, and have done some hand-quilting and appliqué.
As
a family, we love outdoor sports, like snow and water-skiing. We really enjoy being together!

Class Expectations: |
I expect my students to take personal responsibility
in daily effort (P.R.I.D.E.), and remember that all is not lost if we fail sometimes. All of life is a learning experience. I believe anyone can
be successful if they try their best.
