Tell us why you became a teacher

I became a teacher because I had a lot of impactful teachers growing up, and I just really thought that I could encourage and impact the lives of young people to become the men and women that God has called them to become.

Tell us about your most memorable teaching experience

I think my most memorable moment as a teaching is when one of my student comes up and says I have a prayer request. Can you pray for this and then I am able to have my prayer helper come up and pray for all the things that people need prayer for.

What would you do with the $25,000?

I think that I would use some to pay my student debt and I would bless the people around me and my church. I just would want to use the money for good, to help grow the kingdom of God and help me move forward in my life.
