Biological & Health Sciences

I will be teaching on campus Tuesdays and Thursdays from 10:00 am to 11:50 am, room 8401.

I currently teach Contemporary Health Concerns (Health 21).

I lived in Germany when I was first married and really enjoy traveling and learning about different cultures. I enjoy spending time with my family, cooking, entertaining, gardening, and spending time outdoors. My latest hobby is sewing for my granddaughter and quilting.

I have been part of the Foothill faculty since 2007 but my connection to Foothill goes all the way back to my own college days when I graduated with my AS in Dental Hygiene. I have a bachelor's degree in health education from San Francisco State University and a master's degree in dental hygiene from the University of Michigan. I have worked for many years as a dental hygienist but I have always loved all aspects of teaching whether it is one on one or in the classroom. I especially enjoy getting to know my students and supporting their learning and education goals.
