Bio:
I was born and raised in Ohio, but Maryland has been home for the past 32 years. I’m a wife and mother who enjoys reading, kayaking, traveling, and spending time with family and friends. My favorite place is Maine and I love the beach. I taught preschool for many years and have spent the past two years as a paraprofessional in a special education preschool classroom.
