About Me

I have been teaching at JLS since the Fall of 2001 and I am looking forward to many more years. I graduated from the University of Arizona with a degree in Anthropology and a minor in Art History. In my spare time I like to read historical fiction and go to museums. I also try to travel as much as possible. I've had the opportunity to travel to Europe several times, as well as most of the United States. Stratford-Upon-Avon, Hastings, Delft, Innsbruck, Florence, and Normandy were some of the more memorable places I've traveled to in Europe. Salt Lake City, Choteau, St. Louis, Cody, and Taos are all historically rich cities that I have been able to see in the U.S. Last summer I was able to travel to Japan and visit Tokyo, Kyoto, and Osaka. Below are some pictures of my adventures this summer.
