Tell us why you became a teacher

To make a difference! Before I was a teacher, I worked in manufacturing and it was not my cup of tea. I am not mechanically inclined and am definitely a people person. I feel like I make a difference in the lives of my students. I love teaching history because I love learning and then teaching about people from the past that are so similar to ourselves. I could not my see myself as doing anything else now

Tell us about your most memorable teaching experience

Winning teacher of the year for my district in 2022!

What would you do with the $25,000?

Pay off many of my student loans! I would also by some supplies for students and anything else I could use in my classroom. Who doesn’t love a huge map in the back of the classroom?
