Tell us why you became a teacher

My grandparents and their friends were all teachers, and I would hear stories from their students on how my grandparents impacted their lives some way, and I wanted to do just that.

Tell us about your most memorable teaching experience

Every year at graduations, seeing my kids on graduation night with big, bright, smiles. Knowing how some had different challenges, but never gave up an made it to the finish line.

What would you do with the $25,000?

I am currently in school pursing my Masters degree in higher education, and I also have 3 sons in college, so I would help pay some of our tuition, pay some of my debt, and if possible maybe take a small family trip somewhere.
