Tell us why you became a teacher

I became a teacher because I really enjoy being a part of an individuals growth. I enjoy collaboratively working with them to develop ideas and strengthen our knowledge together. I hope to make an impact on them and just be someone they can trust and rely on.

Tell us about your most memorable teaching experience

I don’t have a specific moment in mind for this. However I have many moments in mind. I live for the moments where a student is able understand a concept in science and use that concept in other aspects of their world. Science is in all aspects of their life so I like being able to see them use their learned knowledge across all disciplines of their life.

What would you do with the $25,000?

I would use that money to pay off some of my debt. I have credit card and loan debt that I would like to pay some on. Although it would not cover it all, I know it would be a huge help
