About Me

if you are currently enrolled at the school in which i teach, i will not accept your friend request. sorry


i teach high school art [primarily photography] and coach special olympics.
i'm quite fond of gadgets, gizmos, robots, and the like.
i tend to be a bit awkward & reclusive. i'm diffident & shy away from most things & people.
i'm particularly skilled in the art of running in heels. and i tend to walk fast.
i believe in quality over quantity [except when it comes to shoes]
i have cut my own hair since i was 12.
_________________________________________________
i absolutely love:
my husband, my family and friends, my cats, animals in general [but particularly those of the feline persuasion], music, photography, philosophy, Ahimsa, veganism, vintage clothes, conserving, salvaging, repurposing, environmentalism, being a lefty, being adopted, not knowing how it ends, the absence of color, lots of color [just not on me], all things apple related [the fruit and the technology], my calculator watch, riding my bike, picnics, naps, the oldies, silence, and the number four.
and these guys:
