d am still there. I love adult learners and have a passion for my students and teaching them. As I mentioned early, my business degree is an asset. I tell all my students to never forget that their employers are also a business and to be good stewards of their assets. I have been truly blessed to have had the opportunity to return to school twice with the support of my amazing husband, Dan McGoon. a fellow 1972 Redwood graduate.
