When was the last time you had an author/photographer visit your school who was a  nationally recognized teacher?  I would be thrilled to make this happen!  I’m passionate about teaching and working with students to encourage them to write the stories they find in their own backyard. I am eager to share my personal journey as an author/photographer. I will lead students on the adventure of writing beginning with the motivating idea, followed by the rough draft and then traveling through countless revisions to holding the final product.
