Hello! I am a mom of four with only one left at home. I love teaching and have taught English and citizenship classes at the public library, tutored math, reading and English, and have a background in real estate and loans since 1999. I also do bookkeeping for a commercial and residential investor. As an army brat I moved around a lot as my parents moved in and out of the army. I was raised in Colorado, Nebraska, Missouri, with a 2 year stint in Germany.
