🏠Where did you grow up? I grew up in Portland. One great memory is going to the Rose Festival parade either with my family or a group of friends.
📘What is your favorite book and why?: I love so MANY books, but one of my recent favorites is The Great Alone by Kristen Hannah. The book is about a girl and her family who live in the Alaskan bush in the 1970s. It was so interesting to hear what that type of life was like for her and her family.

👪Family, pets, etc.: My husband, Mark, our three adult kids, and my adorable, sweet grandson.
Reading groups over Zoom? How many screens is too many? Asking for a friend. Mrs. Mills and Mrs. McCaslin go above and beyond when it comes to supporting their students!
