Like so many Las Vegan's, I am not from Las Vegas. I was born in Glen Cove, New York. Almost all of my family is still back there. I am the oldest of five girls (three step sisters and one natural sister). I love going back and visiting them whenever I can.

 I graduated from Bay State College in Boston, Massachusetts then went on to the University of Massachusetts in Amherst, MA. I was there the year that the UMASS Minutemen went to the Sweet Sixteen and then the Final Four. I graduated with a degree in hotel and restaurant management. From there I moved out to Las Vegas and recieved my Master's Degree in education from Nova Southeastern University.

I have been teaching for seven years. I taught four years of elementary school and then moved onto middle school. I love teaching middle school, especially science!

 I have been married for ten years. My husband, Phil works for a local casino.

We have one child, Jordan. Jordan will be nine years old in December.

Our home is like a mini farm. We have three dogs, Einstien, Eddi, and Ziggy; two horses, Remy and Bandit; one pig, Mr. Pickles. I love animals. In my spare time I ride my horses. I use to do show jumping on Remy but now I barrel race on Bandit. I love riding FASSSSST!!

This is Remy and I at the Utah Summer Games.

Well, that's my story. I look forward to getting to know you this year.
