Maryland Mom ?, DI Donator ?
I am a proud mom of six wonderful children and the Team Coordinator and Team Manager for homeschooling Destination Imagination teams in Charles County, Maryland.

Tiny Hat, Generous Heart ❤️?
As a 6-year-old growing up in Eden Prairie, Minnesota, I remember watching my brother and at his DI team perform at our local tournament.

Get Your Hat Ready!
Have you ever heard the expression, “wearing many hats”? It means that you have several different roles that are different from one to the next. If you are anything like me, you wear a lot of hats during the holiday season. I wear my ‘librarian hat’ when I am reading holiday stories to my students […]
Fall Into a New (Virtual) Season of Destination Imagination
There’s no way to sugarcoat it: Covid cases are surging again around the globe, and many of us are preparing to return to all-remote learning (if we weren’t there already).
