About Me
I teach world history to 9th graders at Weymouth High School in Massachusetts. I love my job because I love to tell stories---stories about history and stories about my life as a child of the 80s, stories from my wanna-be journalist days in Washington, DC and stories about my 4 children: Patrick, Veronica, Nora and Agnes. I also tell lots of "what not to do" stories about my dear husband, Jeff.Our Visitors
