I was born and raised in northern New Jersey.  I earned my bachelor's and master's degrees in Chemical Engineering from the University of New Hampshire and also met my husband there.  I worked as a Research Engineer in the biomedical field prior to becoming a teacher at both high school- and college-level chemistry.  I've lived in South Carolina for almost 15 years with my husband, three children, dog, and bunny.  When not working, I spend most of my time chauffeuring my kids to sports practices and games, and I also enjoy walking and hanging out with my family.  I look forward to teaching physical science this semester.
