My goal as a science teacher is to inspire and equip students to be curious, confident, continuous learners in school and in life. I graduated from John Brown University in 1987 and began teaching full-time in 1989. I taught at Chase High School for 3 years and Gardner Edgerton High School for 8 years before joining the Lawrence High School faculty in 2001. In addition to teaching Chemistry and Human Biology, I also serve as a Link Crew Coordinator.
