ADDITIONAL BIOGRAPHICAL INFORMATION

We are a married couple who met while having classrooms next to each other and being on the same PLC team. We want to share the resources we have created as a part of our Teams and as individual teachers. We know how much time we save when we find something on TpT and that gives us more time with our family! We love the idea of sharing resources and making some money on the side to support the other resources we buy on TpT!
