I started out as a child! Seriously, I was born in San Jose, lived in several states before returning to California, the last 38 years in Fremont. I taught elementary school for 28 years, mostly fourth grade. I still love teaching, so I volunteer for the museum on Fridays and teach drawing on two other days every week. My husband and I enjoy camping among the redwoods whenever we can.
