More about Susan Greetings to Saint Paul Open School community!  It is a great opportunity to work with you.  As a member of the special education faculty I will get to interact with so many students and staff.  I want you to know that if I can ever be of any assistance, please don’t hesitate to get in touch with me.   I’ll tell you a little bit about myself and I look forward to getting to know each of you. I live in Roseville with my husband, Mark, and our two children, Nathan and Nina.  I am new to the field of education and am proud to bring with me many years of experience in healthcare management.  I enjoy working with people very much and I am delighted to have been selected to teach at Open School.   My favorite thing to do is to spend time with my family.  I love to go to work and at home I like to cook, clean and shop.  Each day I go jogging around Como Lake and along with my three sisters, I have run three marathons, 26.2 miles.      I am a student at Hamline University working on my Masters in Teaching degree.  I earned my undergraduate degree at the University of Minnesota.  I am a licensed nursing home administrator and a certified nursing assistant.   My entire life I have wanted to help others.  My hope is that I can help students succeed in life by teaching them everyday that they can pursue their dreams if they work for them.
