| Introduction | As many of you know, I love traveling. (Probably has something to do with looking at photos of my father in front of the Sphinx from the time I could talk.) Over the past 20 years I have been teaching, cave mapping and volunteering on archaeological digs all over the world. Most of my work has been done in third world countries of Central America and the Caribbean, and in the Middle East. At the moment I work in a public Montessori program for some of the country's poorest children. I LOVE IT. I am also busy trying to change the No Child Left Behind Laws, so that they really address all the needs of every child in our country. I live with my amazing, beautiful Dalmatian Nilla, and am involved with many human rights and environmental groups and activities. |
