About Me
I create and facilitate study skills workshops at Richland College in Dallas. We are a community college, one of eight here, as part of the Dallas County Community College District.But we are quite large, having an enrollment of 20,000 students. We also have, within our students' representation, over 131 different countries, so our cultural mix is wonderful and enlightening.
I will retire in just a few years, but will likely remain part time as I enjoy, so much, what I do.
I also love the arts, good conversation, and a glass of wine with friends.
