I enjoy being a writer, teacher, and artist.I have a masters in education. I have taught students from all over the world. I’m a Fulbright scholar and taught students in the British Primary in England. For two years I lived in Rome, Italy. I taught at the International Academy of Rome.The Island of Cyprus, offered another interesting teaching experience. I was a Person to Person Ambassador to Bejing, China. I traveled to China with educators from many different countries.
My first book is, Giggle and Go with Stubb to Italy is published as a print and ebook on Amazon. I’ve completed and published Giggle and Go with Stubb to England, and Giggle and Go with Stubb to France. Both books are available on Amazon. My books make up a series of delightful World Awareness books for kids. Many of the the adventures I write about evolved from my experiences while teaching students from all over the world.
While teaching third grade in Rome, Italy I met kids from many cultures. When we visited St Peter’s Cathedral and viewed Michangelo’s marble sculpture of the Pieta, many of the Italian students didn’t know he was Italian and were not aware of Michangelo’s sculptures or his paintings.
That experience was motivation for me to start writing World Awareness books for kids. They’re full of Stubb and his wild adventures, as well as presenting an introduction to art and culture. In other words, let’s hear it for kids, fun, humor and the beauty in our lives.
