I love helping others and what better way than becoming a teacher and providing students with support I didn’t have growing up in school.

Tell us why you became a teacher

I became a teacher to make a difference. Many students struggle or don’t have a great upbringing that they need structure, support, assistance, a relationship, and trust that someone can help them when they need to be heard or listened to.

Tell us about your most memorable teaching experience

The most memorable teaching experience I had was advocating for a student as I had faith in her every day to finish her senior year. It has been a struggle but gaining relationships with student go a long way. Sometimes they need that bond, relationship, and encouragement to know they are smart and intelligent. I love being that teacher for them that they can count on and know I will be in there corner.

What would you do with the $25,000?

If I Won, I would put the $25,000 dollars towards my daughters college next year as she graduates class of 2026 and take a family trip.
