Education

A teacher who began in Santa Barbara with austistic boys; moved to Tunisia to work with the Peace Corps to build a school in a mosque for special needs students in Menzel Temime; returned to US with love of my life to become an English teacher first at Castro Valley High School, then to Burlingame High School where I am teaching happily ever after in the morning and writing books the rest of the day while my wife and children fill the house with the sounds of their lives.
