My hobbies are dancing, watching movies, and reading.  At the moment I've been reading quite a few science related books.  My current endeavor is Genome: The Autobiography of a Species in 23 Chapters by Matt Ridley. 

Yes,  I must toot my own horn,  If I don't who will.  I am an alumni of Northeastern Illinois University in Chicago and a graduate student of Concordia University in Portland, Oregon where I've recently received my masters in Middle School Science Education.  I am in the process of renewing my National Board Certification in EA Mathematics.  I continue to attend a host of workshops, conferences, and participate in professional learning communities.  My most recent being MSU-WIPRO UrbanSTEM Fellowship.   As you can see I still enjoy learning as much as I can and bringing all that I can back to the students I teach everyday.
