I became a teacher at ACS for two reasons. First, all three of my granddaughters attend school at ACS. Second, I have been blessed with the ability to intuitively understand mathematics. I graduated from the University of Maryland with a degree in Nuclear Science and Engineering and a class rank of 1 out of 482 students. I have served as a senior manager in the field of nuclear engineering for the U.S. Government including five years at NASA. I will turn 75 in October of 2024. Teaching at ACS is a way for me to share this awesome blessing with every student who enters my classroom.
