Why did you become a teacher?
My love of stories told in words and music made teaching English and music my professional passions. My mom’s superb advice to me when I was a high school student remains my simple definition of humanism: Be nice to people. And, through some failures, I try to please her every day.
Bio:
Born and raised in New Jersey, I came to DC in 1982 after completing my education at Williams College. Six years as a litigating attorney have now been overshadowed by 30+ years in education as a teacher and administrator, Beyond work, I enjoy watching sports and films with my two adult children, walking my dog Rosie, riding my bicycle, writing about jazz for magazines, and playing the piano, organ, or saxophone with bands in the DC/Baltimore area.
