Melinda Hoffman grew up in Elkridge Maryland. When she was little she wanted to be a pilot. Her favorite subject in school was science. Melinda’s favorite activity to do after school as a child was ride bikes; play in the stream, I always was outside. In her family are her parents and her three sisters and they all have their own children. She has 2 rescue dogs…One is a small yellow lab mix and the other is a small black mix. Her favorite thing about teaching is that a student will make her smile at least once a day. Melinda’s one goal was to run a marathon. Her hobbies were hiking, mountain biking, running and golfing. Her interesting fact is she works at a store called Beauty Outlet.
