I am a previous secondary social studies teacher that has also worked as a freelance curriculum developer for Gibbs-Smith Publishing on three teachers guides. I taught for 5 years, every social studies subject during that period, until deciding to homeschool my daughter and focus on writing and working from home. My interests vary wildly, with travel being my favorite because it always introduces me into a new part of our world. I have a bachelors degree and spent 8 years as a call center customer service assistance for mortgage companies. My skills are numerous and valuable to anyone that can find use of them!
