Tell us why you became a teacher

In high school, I fell in love with biology: I loved how it explained how life all around me worked. I wanted to take all the knowledge I learned and pass it on to others, so I knew I wanted to teach science!

Tell us about your most memorable teaching experience

I was selected as a Teacher Ranger Teacher for the National Park Service. I got to spend my summer in New Mexico helping a national monument create a lesson that other teachers could use!

What would you do with the $25,000?

I want to donate it to help pay for my school's annual science camp field trip. Our sixth graders get to spend a week in the redwood forest learning about nature. Since many families can't pay for the trip, I would love to make sure all students can attend without worrying about the cost.
