About
I am here for YOU! I can give you Freedom, Confidence, Skills and a Love of driving. But mostly, I give you hope. For those of you who never thought you could drive, I am the person for you. Calm, patient and supportive guidance will put you at ease behind that wheel enough for you to focus and be comfortable driving in the real world.
I get to give such a great gift to those who truly need and want to drive. Watching your face when you realize you are actually able to do this is a wonderful reward for me.

Frequently asked questions
What is your typical process for working with a new student?
We go at your pace. No pressure. I go over the basics for the driving test. We add more when we both feel you are ready.
What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?
I am a state certified driving instructor and have been for seven years. I am also a state certified driver license tester.
I was a transportation manager for a corporation.
I have had travel jobs that allowed me to drive all over the United States. Lots of practical driving experience.
Biggest requirement: I Love to Drive. When you love what you do, you are great at it and I get to pass that on to you.
Do you have a standard pricing system for your lessons? If so, please share the details here.
$45 a hour, minimum 2 hour lessons
That starts from the time I get to your home until I leave (and I will go just about anywhere).
We take my car "Alexa" or maybe "Alex" both are small cars and can take it. They have a brake on my side and I can grab the wheel, so it's like I'm driving with you.
You choose how many lessons you need. No contracts. Pay at end of each lesson; Cash, Venmo, Zelle, Cash App
How did you get started teaching?
A part time "doing what I love" job has turned into my own business.
What types of students have you worked with?
Men, Women and sometimes teens.
I am grateful that I get to help so many people from other countries who did not grow up here learning our ways of the road.
Anxious people. I am very calm and supportive
Describe a recent event you are fond of.
My favorite is watching someone who can't do a simple turn the first 10 min. and exclaiming "I'm really driving" at the end of the 2 hours. And then a few weeks later, sending me the picture of their license with the text, "I never thought this could be me!"
What advice would you give a student looking to hire a teacher in your area of expertise?
Get someone who cares. Tell them of your fears and concerns and see how they react.
What questions should students think through before talking to teachers about their needs?
Make sure you have that permit to start. Can't legally drive with someone else without it.
Tell you coach where you are in the driving process. "Never sat in a driver seat" to "I just need a refresher for the test"
