Welcome!

Hola! I am glad you are here!

I am honored to have been selected to be one of the 25 participants in the Toyota International Teacher Program to Costa Rica. All of the participants teach courses in grades 6-12. We teach a variety of classes-science, art, technology, social studies, etc. The teachers represent 20 states and I am proud to be representing Iowa.
Our journey begins April 18 in Miami, Florida. We will be touring the everglades and then flying to Costa Rica. While in Costa Rica, we will be meeting with scientists, environmentalists, and Costa Rican educators and students. I will be writing about my experience and posting photos on this site, as well as on my Toyota Wiki.
Upon my return, I will be sharing what I have learned about environmental sustainability and cultural preservation. My hopes are to work with students, teachers, and our community on creative and innovative ways to preserve our environment.
I look forward to having you join me on this fantastic journey!
