I am so delighted to be joining the Vista Grande family! I have been a teacher for 20 years and will be starting my fourth year as vice principal. My teaching career started in southern Ontario, where I grew up, but then I decided to see the world and taught for three years in Seoul, South Korea and then for another three years in Kuwait. During that time I also had the incredible opportunity of doing volunteer teaching in Kathmandu, Nepal and a Liberian refugee camp just outside of Accra, Ghana. Since we moved home, I have been in various schools across the division and have taught at and been a vice principal at both the elementary and middle school levels. Needless to say, I'm very excited to be at Escuela Vista Grande with both elementary and middle school and an International Spanish Academy at that!
