I hold an LL.M. in International and Comparative Law from Chicago-Kent Law and I am a Licensed Attorney in the country of México. I was also trained to teach Spanish in an Immersion Program in Cuernavaca while I was in law school, and I taught students from all over the globe at all levels there for 5 years. In addition, I have taught all levels of Spanish using different techniques in a variety of settings on and off over the past 25 years - including Business and Professional people, Graduate School, High School, Middle School, Elementary School, Preschool, and even baby-toddler age children. I also do freelance writing (mostly in Spanish). I am currently writing for Cross Roads the Diocese of Lexington Magazine and I am the editor for “El Peregrino”, a monthly Spanish bulletin; I do translations, interpretations, and tutor/teach Spanish under my LLC. My husband and I have been blessed with 2 wonderful children from God. I am Catholic and feel a special connection to Our Lady of Guadalupe and, of course, Jesus.

*I enjoy tea and a good coffee. Swimming and golf are my favorite sports. I enjoy visiting my family in México every chance I get and to travel.*
