Amanda Garlow’s Summary
I have been teaching since December 2007, and now have clear-renewable certification in the field of English. I plan to become certified to teach elementary grades as well.
I still run a small publishing and photography operation on the side. I started Papyrus Tree in 2006 with the goal of creating a publishing company recognizable for its unrivaled personal service and for offering its clients an entire package of publishing expertise, from writing and editing to graphic design and printing. The project is still running, but it's taking a backseat to my new career.
