I am a graduate of Chico State with a BS in Computer Science and I was a student of their honors program.

I first started teaching in 2003 as a substitute to supplement the income from my guiding business during the slower portion of the year.

I went to school for the next year at the University of Kentucky, did not finish my degree, but earned enough credits to be hired by to teach in their Alternative School. I taught and was a leader and innovator at Cropper Alternative School for the next five years, until I decided to move to this part of the country after a recent divorce.
