Why did you enter the teaching profession?

Kathy McCabe, a friend, suggested that I apply for teaching at Terra State. She was an adjunct faculty member teaching English at that time. I applied and was accepted. The rest, as they say, is history!

What do you like most about your field?

I love teaching and love mathematics. I am a past president of the American Mathematical Association of Two-Year Colleges (AMATYC) and am very interested in student success. I am the co-chair of an AMATYC document that discusses implementing standards in teaching. Many students are afraid of mathematics, I like being able to help students realize that mathematics is part of their every day lives and that they can do mathematics!

Fun facts:

I enjoy gardening and canning. I also enjoy sewing and making quilts. In my spare time I like to read mysteries.
