Tell us why you became a teacher

The average farmer in America is over 75 years old. We need new generations of tradesman, farmers, Ranchers, researcher and engineers to feed the world. I can help start a small drop in that big pond.

Tell us about your most memorable teaching experience

Some of my students are homeless. Seeing them, regardless of how hard life is out of school, still show up and work in the shop and put in that effort is always the most impactful and memorable.

What would you do with the $25,000?

Split it into scholarships and work on getting better demonstrative equipment for my engine and hydraulics labs. I would also try and use it to start a heavy equipment operator program at my school.
