I started teaching court reporting classes on a part-time basis at Cypress College in 1983 and joined the faculty as a full time instructor in 1990. Prior to 1990 I taught at Cerritos College and Downey Adult School in the Court Reporting Departments. I also taught math, science, and homemaking in Bellflower and Downey secondary schools. I was a deposition report for an Orange County firm in the early 80s.
