Tell us why you became a teacher

From the time I was four years old, I dreamed of being a teacher. I was inspired by my own teachers and always felt it was a calling.

Tell us about your most memorable teaching experience

There are so many. When students come back years later and share success stories are among my favorites. When I hear how I’ve inspired them along their journey, it brings me joy. I am grateful to have played such an important role in the lives of others.

What would you do with the $25,000?

I would use it to pay off debt and invest in my small business. I would use it to continue to help others.
