I am a San Diego native originally from Pacific Beach. My alma mater is Uni High (now Cathedral Catholic). At SDSU, I tripled-majored in Creative Writing, British Literature, and Latin, with a Minor in German. My Master's Degree, also from SDSU, is in Comparative Literature, with an emphasis in Chaucer and Shakespeare. I began teaching a long time ago at Rancho Bernardo High School, teaching English and German. Sometimes my favorite novels are The Sun Also Rises, The Moon and Sixpence, and Frankenstein, and my Rhodesian Ridgeback's name is Friday, but if you have a doggie treat, she will respond to anything. I will find every comma mistake you make this year.
