I am pround of the fact that I am a native of Maine and have
remained in Maine to work and raise my eight year old son. I
graduated from Brewer High School and the University of Maine
at Orono. I have taught middle level health education for 23
years in the Messalonskee School District and have coached various
sports for the past 26 years. I have served on committees for
Maine Educational Assessment development and Portfolio Assessment
committees. I have won awards for my curriculum, "Teens Teaching
Teens." I believe that the best way to teach is by example. Adults
need to mentor young adults. Young adults need to mentor teenagers
and teenagers need to mentor children. Raise the standard of
life by being the standard.
