| Introduction | I am originally from Long Island, New York. I graduated at the top of my class after spending many years toiling as a student in the Port Washington School District. I swam competitively for 12 years, with 10 of those years on a nationally-ranked swim team. I went to Wellesley College in Wellesley, MA (yes, the women's college). There I played water polo, swam (for fun), and participated in several clubs. During my time at Wellesley, I studied abroad in Sweden (Lund University) and in Italy (at the Intercollegiate Center for Classical Studies in Rome). That was the best year of my life! It was too cold up North, so I flew south to Florida! I have never been so happy -- I live in a great place, have my own dog, and have a great job! |
| Interests | Ancient Rome and Greece |
| Favorite movies | Too many to list...I like comedies and scary movies! |
| Favorite music | You all know this very well: ANYTHING THAT MAKES ME DANCE!!!! I love cheesy disco, 80s, and 90s music. My classroom sounds more like a discotech than a classroom most of the time! :) |
| Favorite books | Vergil's Aeneid (yes, I am a dork!); Toni Morrison's Song of Solomon; Barbara Kingsolver's Poisonwood Bible; any book by Amy Tan...and I have a subscription to US Weekly. :) |
What's the most amount of sand you've ever had in your swimming trunks?
In Mexico, when the waves are knocking me all over the place! That was scary...I may be a swimmer, but I am terrified of the ocean...
