Introduction	I was born in New Jersey and lived on the east coast until my family moved out to Utah. I was 14, it was the early 70’s and I fully expected to live on a ranch and ride my horse to school every day. (Hey, my knowledge of the Wild West came from Bonanza and John Wayne movies). Right out of high school, I started working at a local pizza parlor. For the next 15 years that was my career, working my way up to opening my own franchise in Provo that went belly-up that same year. I started processing their payroll in the early 80’s, and still do it today. I got my BS in Mathematics Education in 1993 and started my second career. My main subject has been math at the middle school level, but I have also taught Stage Crew, Psychology, Web Page Design, Computer Technology and am currently teaching half math and half keyboarding. I’ve taught at 6 different schools (under only 4 different principals), ranging from an upper income junior high to an inner city high school, from the junior high the farthest east in the valley to the one at the foothills of the mountains to the west. I love taking pictures, working on my home and am a Classic Ford fanatic.
