                Presentation description
              I am a former high school teacher and am comfortable presenting to all grades. I regularly customize my presentations to meet the needs of audiences.
My picture books are suited to students from junior kindergarten through to grade four. When speaking with older audiences, I focus on the writing and publishing processes.
