I am starting my twenty-second year as a special education teacher here at Brinker Elementary School.  I graduated from the University of Tennesse, Knoxville with my bachelors degree.  I grew up in New England, but have lived in Teaxas for the last twenty-two years.  My husband Rick and I have been married for fourty years.  We have two children that are both married and have three grandchildren that we love to spoil.  I also have three grandpuppies.  In my free time I love to cook, hike, backpack, camp, and garden.  I love the mountains!  I am also involved in the youth programs at my church, Scouts BSA, and the Red Cross.  Please feel free to contact me any time with any questions you have.  If I don't know the answer, I will find out the answer.
