I have been teaching 4th through 8th grade Spanish at St. Peter's for the past five years.
 
My husband Craig and I moved to San Antonio from New York City where we both worked for UNICEF global education projects. While Craig  worked with UNICEF Nicaragua from 1989-2000, I directed a small K-12 Catholic School in Managua. Later, when Craig transferred to UNICEF Brazil, I was the principal for all English programs at the School of the Nations in Brasilia. I have taught in elementary, special education and high schools in Iowa, Wisconsin, Utah, Wyoming, Florida, and Texas. I received my undergraduate degree in Elementary Education and English Literature from Clarke College in Dubuque, Iowa and an M.Ed in Education from the University of Washington/Seattle. In addition to  English, I speak Spanish and Portuguese.
 
Our daughter, Kara, just completed her residency in pediatrics in Portland, Oregon where she will begin a fellowship in pediatric endochrinology. Our son, Adam is a real estate developer who just moved from New York City to continue his career in New Orleans.
