Tell us why you became a teacher

There is a serious lack of critical thinking in the world! I am passionate about literacy in all forms. It is so important for kids to learn how to process information and communicate effectively. Especially in our increasingly complex media landscape! Plus, I love literature and just wanted to talk about it forever. :)

Tell us about your most memorable teaching experience

Teaching has so many memorable moments! Building relationships with students and their families is the most meaningful part of my job. I especially love working with challenging students and helping them make it to graduation. It is hard to think of anything more rewarding!

What would you do with the $25,000?

I would take all of my amazing teacher friends on a trip!
