About Me

By profession I was an English teacher.  I have a CELTA (Certificate in English Language Teaching to Adults) from Cambridge University and for 25 years I taught EFL (English as a Foreign Language) to adults in Geneva, Switzerland.

No, I am neither Swiss nor English.  I was born in Boston, and although I worked in Geneva from 1981 to July 2006, my husband and I have now moved to San Diego where our daughter lives.

In addition to my CELTA certificate, I have a BA in French from Mount Holyoke College in South Hadley, Massachusetts, and an MA in French from Columbia University in New York City. In fact, before I was an English teacher, I taught French.

I took up web design on my own in 2003 (Wangenheim was my first website.) and book design in 2005. 

Now that I have retired from teaching, I am working full-time as a webmaster for a dozen or so websites.  In addition, I also do the layout for a monthly newspaper in Del Mar, The Sandpiper.

My hobby is photography.
