Greetings

I've been an educator at Truman College since 1982. I've taught Chemistry, Physical Science, Electronics, CISCO Networking, A+ Certification, Web Development, Web Design, and Chemistry Through Food. Several years ago I spent six years in Administration first as Assistant Dean of Instructional Technology and subsequently as Dean of Careers. I returned to the classroom because I love to teach! My goal for all of my students is to provide them with experiences that are authentic, hands-on, inspiring and fun. I also show students that hard work is rewarding. There is much worth knowing but it requires a passion to learn and a dedication and focus that is sometimes difficult to achieve in the midst of a busy life. Education is an investment in yourself.

To learn more about the classes I currently teach and about my philosophy and experiences in education please visit my website: JustOnly.com. Be sure to read excerpts from my Blog and to look at the Studio Classroom slideshow. Hope to meet you in one of my classes.

In addition to my teaching duties in both the Credit Program (Chemistry and Physical Science) and Continuing Education (Web Development Certificate Program) I am currently the president of the faculty council.
