I am a Midwesterner transplanted in Arizona for more than 30 years. My wonderful husband and I have four children, one grandson, and two dogs. On Sundays, I play the piano at church and teach Sunday School to fourth through sixth graders. I love to crochet, read, go camping and travel with my husband. I graduated cum laude from Northern Arizona University with a Bachelor of Science in Education and have a Master’s Degree in Educational Administration from Grand Canyon University.
