Mrs. Dickenson

I was born and raised in Boston, Massachusetts.  I am a huge Red Sox fan, and I love dogs. 

I graduated from the University of Massachusetts in Amherst with a Bachelor's Degree in English and Psychology. I received a Master's Degree in Education Curriculum and Instruction from California State University.  I worked for several years as a technical writer in San Francisco before moving to Los Angeles and becoming a teacher. 
 
Prior to teaching at Lawrence I taught for five years at an elementary school in South Los Angeles. I taught grades one through five.  When I am not working I enjoy traveling, running and yoga.  I would like to one day become a college professor, and write instructional guides for teaching.

Life is Good!

My husband and I love to travel when we have some free time.  We enjoy tropical weather, and hanging out on the beach.  We are certified scuba divers so we usually travel to a place where we can explore under the sea.
