Tell us why you became a teacher

At sixteen I worked in an after school program and realized I liked kids and wanted to be a teacher! And my Dad was a high school Latin teacher and inspired me by his love of teaching!

Tell us about your most memorable teaching experience

My digital media student at the high school I worked at won the prestigious Detroit Auto Show poster design during my very difficult pandemic teaching year!!! I was so very proud!

What would you do with the $25,000?

I would pay off my car and put a down payment on a house. I have rented for so long and would like to own a home!
