Educator:

Rebecca's first teaching position was with deaf/blind infants and children. Later positions included deaf and LD/ND students. She homeschooled for 25 years and worked for Regina Caeli, a small private school, helping homeschool families. She taught preschool, high school, and adult dance classes, and taught ASL to high schoolers. Her vast teaching experience adds to her knowledge and skills as an educator.
 

College Counselor:

Since 2012, Rebecca has helped students through the college search and application process. She stays on top of the latest education trends and news, and shares relevant data with her families. She's had multiple interviews and has been on admissions podcasts, and loves sharing all that she knows with her students and parents.

Personal Information

I am a Christian, and my husband and I are the parents of three wonderful adult sons. Our eldest son graduated from MIT, our middle son attended the University of Pennsylvania, Cal State Fullerton, and currently attends San Diego State University, and our youngest son attends Regent University. 

 

JUST FOR FUN

This was my last dance solo before retiring from performing at age 48! I was a jazz dance specialist, so this, a modern piece, was (quite literally) a stretch for me.
