Tell us why you became a teacher

I loved school and wanted to help students grow to love to learn. I love to build relationships with kids and help them grow into lifelong learners.

Tell us about your most memorable teaching experience

So many. One is when I taught 3rd grade. There was a student that was super challenging. We started to develop a relationship right when Covid hit, and then we had so many amazing conversations and he always wanted to talk on zoom.

What would you do with the $25,000?

Save it and use it to pay off debt.
