I was born in Lindsborg, Kansas in 1944.  After graduating from Bethany College in 1966 I  joined the U.S. Peace Corps and attended training that summer at Boston University.  I served in the U.S. Peace Corps for two years as a  teacher in a Government Secondary School in Ilorin, Nigeria where I taught Chemistry and Mathematics according to the British/West African syllabus.

I then lived for nineteen years in Dublin, Ireland.   I attended Trinity College (Dublin)  to obtain higher diplomas in education and computers in education (Graduate school of engineering, TCD), and I taught science and mathematics in Dublin schools.   In 1970 I married marine biologist Krishan Bhatnagar and our three children were all born in Dublin.   In 1988 we moved to Lindsborg where our children all attended Smoky Valley schools and  I continued teaching, first as a substitute teacher and then as a Science Teacher with the Smoky Valley Virtual Charter School.
