Tell us why you became a teacher

I’ve wanted to be a teacher since i was in the 2nd grade. My 1st and second grade teacher actually changed my life and I wanted to be just like her when i was older.

Tell us about your most memorable teaching experience

Getting invited to a baptism, cheer competition, multiple birthday parties, dance performances and a gymnastics meet. I LOVE that my kids want me to show up and i ALWAYS do.

What would you do with the $25,000?

I would probably use it as a down payment for a house!
