After 30 years as a junior high and high school administrator, I joined the Pitsco Family and have enjoyed the advancement of the educational journey. My position over the past 10+ years has involved the searches and reporting of grant opportunities for educators at all levels. I produce a monthly grants newsletter and also write for The Pitsco Network magazine that illustrates success with Pitsco products. In addition, I have almost learned to use a computer instead of a typewriter.
