About Patti J.

Welcome to my web-site and the web-site of my beautiful and talented students. We originally created this as a way of communicating lesson schedules, upcoming contests, and announcements, but to date, we have had over 17000 visitors! If I would have realized the popularity, I wouldn't have created this site using a "free service"! :)

Teaching baton is not a job, but rather a passion. I have a career position at EDS, where I am contracted to Delphi Automotive systems to help manage their Network Infrastructure globally. I am currently located in Troy at one of the Delphi Facilities. I do time find to teach baton 3 nights a week at Oakland Community College in Auburn Hills.

I am an AVID golfer and much improved in the 10 years that I have been playing. My husband and I also play fantasy football and are huge football and basketball fans. Recently, we have been enjoying wine tasting as a new hobby. We are learning a lot.

One of my greatest joys is traveling with my husband. We both enjoy hiking through our National Parks and have marveled in the beauty of Bryce, Zion, Grand Canyon, Glacier, Yosemite, Yellowstone, the Everglades and others. We recently spent two weeks hiking in Banff in the Canadian Rockies. The Island of Sint Marten in the Caribbean is our favorite place for rest and relaxation.
