Hello everyone, it’s been a while since I’ve introduced myself so I’ve decided now is the perfect time.

I have been in education for over 30 years serving as a classroom teacher, instructional coach, Social Studies coordinator, professional development trainer, and Social Studies consultant. I started Social Studies Success in 2015 fulfilling a lifelong dream of improving Social Studies instruction. I offer professional development and resources for middle school Social Studies. I am extremely excited to share that I have started a partnership with lead4ward to offer socialstudies+ , providing PD and resources designed specifically for 8th grade teachers in Texas.

In my personal life I am happily married with a daughter in college. I absolutely love to travel and am constantly looking for someplace new to visit. I have a house full of pets - 2 dogs and 2 cats! My hobbies include painting and planning my next trip.

Now I would love to hear from you! Where do you live and what do you teach?

One of my first activities and one of my favorites
