Tell us why you became a teacher

I became a teacher because I love to help others. I love to see the progress from the kiddos. I love the interaction with them and just knowing I can help and be their safe space.

Tell us about your most memorable teaching experience

My most memorable teaching experience is seeing a kiddo progress to another classroom. From a kid going from not being able to tolerate the classroom setting and getting physical with you to a student classroom ready and return to their district is so rewarding to me.

What would you do with the $25,000?

I would love to donate to my job. Kidslink school and also open up my own child care center.
