Tell us why you became a teacher

My mom and dad were teachers and I looked up to them so much. I would go with them to school and play school at home with my siblings and dolls/stuffed animals.

Tell us about your most memorable teaching experience

One of my favorite teaching experiences is when a struggling student sat down with me during small group and was able to read a whole sentence by themselves! We both got so excited that I gave them a high five and the biggest hug and told my aid and their parents too!!

What would you do with the $25,000?

The money would be a down payment on a future home for me and my family. The five of us have lives in apartments and are now ready for a bigger place to call home and this would help us get so much closer to that goal.
