Teaching and learning are my mantras when it comes to life. As an in-person instructor, I wrote my own curriculum and state standards. After leaving the teaching field, I have utilized all forms of online formats to teach people from all over the world topics such as gardening, camping, and floral design.

While the YouTube channels that I have created have been very successful, I am also using ZOOM and Facebook live to reach learners in the gardening topic along with adult ed. presently, I am teaching several different classes through a program called LevelUp. As part of my gardening class, I have written an eBook to cover the topics more in detail. This includes links to videos I have made that show how to do certain skills.
