Tell us why you became a teacher

When I came from Trinidad as a child my 5 grade teacher Ms.Rohner supported me and believed in me when I didn’t. She pushed me beyond measured, and I wanted to be like her. I strive to be like her even better, and make all my scholars feel welcomed.

Tell us about your most memorable teaching experience

Seeing my students growth. My students I taught in 10 grade are teachers, in medical school, law school. They came back to talk to my students and shared their story.

What would you do with the $25,000?

I would celebrate my students. With all the adversities that’s occurring around them celebrating them is needed at this time. I would also celebrate my team for their hard work, a spa day or some type of relaxation activity.
