My greatest reward, and my greatest challenge, is being a mom. I am an English teacher by profession, and a writer by passion. I live, work, and play in Boise, Idaho. I believe we all have a story to tell, and my hope is that by sharing mine, I can help individuals navigate life a little easier, and perhaps feel a little less alone on the journey. My first real writing project, Hey, Get a Job! came about because I needed a lesson plan. I thought teaching my Technical Reading and Writing students how to fill out a job application would be fabulous. I'm all about the "beg, borrow, and steal" theory of education, but when I went searching for lessons on applications, or anything else related to first jobs, I found nothing suitable for teens. I went to employers who hire kids, and I took the information out there for adults and made it consumable for teens. When I finished, I realized I had written more than a lesson plan. I wrote a book. This is the second edition of 'Hey, Get a Job!' and I am proud to say that it has helped thousands of teens across the country get and keep a job.
