Tell us why you became a teacher

I want to make positive impacts on all students. I want all students to feel like they can be a successful part of the future!

Tell us about your most memorable teaching experience

When past students come back and tell me I was tuff, but they learned great life skills in my class, not just the subject I teach.

What would you do with the $25,000?

I would take my kids on a vacation and pay some student loans! Maybe do some upgrades on my home!
