that's my name in scratchitti!
thoughts on being a mama, transitioning from urban school teacher to community college professor, processing life and death, how to be a good friend and wife, the conundrum of race, and this crazy lovable city i live in.
how i'm feeling
that's my name in scratchitti!
my split personality
This is my personal blog to process my life and all that comes with it. I have a professional blog (one about teaching) at www.readwriteteach.org. If you're a teacher, please check it out, pass it along, and give me some good, critical feedback. xo.

- now a community college professor, teaching English (reading and writing). trying to get some stuff published. brainstorming my next research project. dreaming of owning a piece of Brooklyn to live in. mommy to an artsy and emotional five year old daughter who can walk as far as me (re: miles!)and an almost three year old firecracker of a son who eats his weight daily and is the house comedian. wife to superstar architect husband. lover of my subway commute and reading. relishing the few zen moments i get per day.
