I am thrilled to be at Margarita Middle School! I look forward to another great year at Margarita, getting to know the students and families of Temecula. This is my 16th year at Margarita Middle School. This is my 19th year teaching Language Arts, although I have taught other subjects. I am an avid sports fan who has been following football and the Green Bay Packers since birth. I also enjoy watching basketball, Go Warriors! And baseball with the San Francisco Giants. At school I coach the basketball team, help out with the golf and cross country teams, and play Ping-Pong every day with Mr. Duncan and Mr. Pomerenke. If I am not working, you will find me with my family, going on bike rides with my son and daughter, or playing sports with my son or dancing with my daughter.
