What is your educational/professional background?

I have an associate’s degree in Geology from Saddleback Community College in Mission Viejo, a bachelor’s of science in Earth Science (emphasis in Geology) and minors in Geology, Geography, and Anthropology from Cal Poly San Luis Obispo, and a master’s of science in Agriculture (emphasis in education).

Renewing a vigorous Earth Science Program. “Rocks aren’t just for “Jocks.’”

What do you like about your subject?

EVERYTHING!

When you aren’t teaching, what do you like to do for fun?

Arts and crafts, garden, hike, fish, and float.

What is your favorite movie?

“Star Wars” (the older ones), “Indiana Jones,” and “Gladiator.”

What would surprise your students to know about you?

I’m really quiet and almost shy outside of school.
