Hello everyone!  A little about me...

I have been an educator for over twenty years.  In addition to teaching, I operate an accounting practice in the Santa Clarita Valley.  I have the following degrees:  Bachelor of Science in Accountancy, Masters of Education and Masters in Business Administration.  I am also a licensed Certified Public Accountant.

Previously, I have worked as an Accountant/Financial Analyst, small business owner (heavy equipment rentals) and real estate investor. 

In my free time, I enjoy mountain biking, traveling, training dogs and gardening.
