What’s one thing no one knows about you?

“I wrote a series of children’s books for my nephew and he took them to school and the librarian put them in the library for other kids to check out.”

What’s  your favorite thing to teach in school?

“My favorite thing to teach is the family marrying because I enjoy when everyone participates. I also enjoy teaching the colors with balloons and telling the story of La Llorona.”
