Joanne's Story
I live in the quirky, artsy village of Sea Cliff with my children Lauren and Michael, and my husband Mike. I teach elementary art right here in the North Shore School District....an easy commute! Although I never would have thought that teaching was my calling, I have been at it for 24 years now and still love, love, love it! I've taught in the classroom in a variety of alternative models and then switched to the art studio about 6 years ago, when the State testing began to inhibit my creativity.

ional educational pieces. I love to "have written" when all is said and done, but I find the act of writing can be painstaking and grueling.

Although I just celebrated my 48th birthday, I am happy to say that I can still; twirl a baton, play the drums and dance in high heels. Really!!
