About ME!

 

Hello everyone! I am an English teacher at Vista Murrieta High School. I am in my 21st year of teaching and currently teach CSU Expo, Cinema as Literature, and AP Language and Composition. I attended UC Irvine in 1998, earning my Bachelor's Degree in English in 2001. I continued to pursue education, earning my teaching credential in 2003 at Long Beach State University. I earned my Masters Degree in English as well through Cal Baptist University in Spring of 2021. I love learning and I hope my enthusiasm for it rubs off on others! You will find that I am a bit animated and I usually have an extra surplus of energy; I believe it helps keep students awake and anticipating what the next moment of class will offer! I am an avid lover of running, dancing and writing. I would go insane without my daily run--it's a fun and healthy exercise! More about me later...

 

 Okay, so in addition to running, my favorite ride at Disneyland is the Buzz Lightyear Laser ride! I've never had so much fun! You should also consider noticing the precision I shoot with...too cool!

Mr Hipp and I went to Italy and toured the Vatican! What a majestic place. So much history!

 

Over the summer of 2009, I got married! We danced the night away and Mr. P was our DJ! Also, the majestic "Ring Bear" greeted us! We have two lovely daughters named Indy and Scout :)
