My blog about encouragement and faith ~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
Welcome to my website! My theme as a children’s writer is “Make Learning Fun.” My passion is educating kids, helping busy teachers address curriculum accountability standards, and encouraging other writers to do the same. And I strive to make that educational process simple and fun for everyone. Raising my own kids took me back inside the elementary classroom to lead art and activity programs and sent me into the community to head up scouting groups and organize events for an international children’s charity. Over the years, thousands of children have enjoyed the educational activities I have created. And along the way, they’ve had almost as much fun as I have! This site is dedicated to the children and teachers I write for. And for parents who are also teachers to their kids. It is also dedicated to writers who either write for kids or who were once kids themselves. I hope you'll return often for more ideas on how to MAKE LEARNING FUN! Throughout this site are links you can click on to order my books. I worried about being too commercial. But then I remembered that my #1 goal is to MAKE LEARNING FUN. I hope my books will make that an easy goal for you to achieve. I was inspired to create my most recent book, FUN WITH FINANCE because of my passion for financial accountability. My background is that I am a licensed real estate broker, previouly owned and ran a small business, and am an active investor and trader in the stock, bond and futures markets. I wanted to share my experience and interests with children and the adults who teach them so that we can raise up a new generation of financial superheroes! For more information about me, including my personal testimony of faith, please visit me at my blog.
FUN WITH FINANCE: MATH + LITERACY = $UCCESS

I'm making finance fun for kids AND adults! ************************************************* I am available for school visits, workshops, demonstrations, book signings, and conferences.
