About Me
Who am I?
I am most recently a mom. I am currently working on child number two and my beloved son, Aiden, was born on May 19, 2005. I am really enjoying being a stay at home mom, but please do not think that I am just sitting around playing with my son (although that is the fun part of it). I am learning and teaching him sign language. I also enjoy getting together with various moms and kids for playdates. I just love being a mom!
I am a wife. I love my husband, Chris, with all my heart and feel so lucky to have met him in 1990. Our wedding was October 8, 2000 at Douglass College where we met. We love the outdoors, hiking, biking and camping. We try to go on a camping trip every year and would like to visit every state. You can read about each of our trips in the travel category.
I am a sister. I have two brothers, Joe and Jeff. Joe has given me two neices, Keirstie and Brielle, and one nephew, Joey, who Chris and I love very much and they all love Aiden too. Jeff is making me (and the rest of the family) very proud having graduated from Drexel University and working on his Masters there as well.
I am a teacher. I currently teach Web Design at Mercer County Community College. I have been teaching there since September 2001. I have also taught PreSchool and Elementary School. I guess you could say my son is in trouble if he doesn’t like learning!
I am a student. In addition to attending Douglass College (as an undergraduate) and The College of New Jersey (for my Masters), I have taught myself (with the help of my brillant husband) HTML and how to create web sites. My latest endeavor is this blog and learning sign language to teach to my son.
I am a friend. I have been able to hang onto some friends from high school, Kadri (password protected) and Stephanie. We had gotten married all around the same time and now we are all having our first child within a year and a half of each other. Kadri has the 2 most adorable little girls, Kaili and Amelia, and Stephanie has a little boy, Lawson, who is the spitting image of his father.
Douglass College has been a great place for me to secure many friends (as well as a husband). Early on I met my roommate Purvi who now has 2 beautiful children, and a friend that is very special to both Chris and I, Heath. Later I befriended some wonderful women, Tara, Fiona and Liz who I still keep in contact with.
Another friend of mine, Leslie has the cutest daughter, Abigail. Interesting enough Leslie and her husband Michael both went to Rutgers University at the same time Chris and I did although we did not meet until after we all graduated. We do enjoy getting together every April to attend Cook College’s Ag Field Day and Douglass College’s Folk Festival. We enjoy taking Aiden and hope the tradition lives on through the years.
