Interests: My name is Jennifer and I am a Mom to 6 beautiful children, aged 8 to 24 years old. We live in sunny Memphis, Tennessee, a city on the incredible Mississippi River. Our family home is a classic Georgian style 70 year old property named Ivy Hill, which we are working to restore to it's original glory. My hobbies include home decor, crafts, cooking, sewing, and all things related to kids.

I have been teaching for over 30 years. I started teaching private Trumpet lessons to grade school aged children while I was in college, then home schooled my 6 children in a variety of subjects and grade levels. Most recently, I have been teaching English to students in China.

Several years ago I converted to Islam and am interested in traveling to and spending time in Muslim countries, learning about their culture, history, and cuisine. I have spent time in Pakistan, United Arab Emirites, and Azerbaijan.
