About Me

I'm a teacher of an Autism Specific classroom. I'm a terrific singer. I'm in a great band called 'THE CLARENCES' (check us out below). I once beat Jordan Knight in a sing off. Yes, THE Jordan Knight. I once danced on stage with Sir Mix-A-Lot (or Mr. A-lot as I refer to him). I once had a barbie earing surgically removed from my ear. I like to dress silly. I practically own a MAC counter and therefore have to put make-up on just about every female I know. I love the beach and traveling. Who doesn't? I am a little bit of everything. I enjoy all types of personalities, music, and cultures. I love to dance. I have the best sunglass collection this side of the Mississippi. Aw hell...both sides.ABBA!ABBA!ABBA!Pee Wee's Big Adventure!!!!Spinal Tap!!
