Early Life: I was born in Santa Rosa, CA. Skip a few years and I graduated from Healdsburg High School. My brother and I were first generation college students and both ended up in San Diego for college (not a bad place to study).
Previous Work Life: After graduating with my PhD, I worked as a researcher for both the NCAA and Rockman et al. Thereafter, I was a faculty member at the University of Indianapolis for 3 years and Napa Valley College for one year.
Current-ish Life: If I am not working on classes or feeding a kiddo or watching a kiddo play soccer/baseball/basketball, I am playing tennis or soccer or running or reading or watching too much TV. I love to teach...so that's what I do!
