I love to teach because I get to be the kids' biggest hype woman, and the person who helps them succeed. I get to guide future scientists.

Learn MoreI became a teacher to help get kids interested in science and to make a difference in people's lives and in the future. I wanted my career to have meaning.
Tell us about your most memorable teaching experienceMy most memorable experience would be when our school developed a science fair for our Science and Medicine Academy High School students. Allowing the students to learn and explore and to see the breathtaking ideas they had, was absolutely amazing.
What would you do with the $25,000?If I were to win the award, I would immediately run to Lowe's! I am trying to bring in a greenhouse, chicken coop, and compost bin to our school grounds to pilot an agricultural program. This money would jet set those plans and bring science and agricultural education to so many students who may never get to explore that side of our community.
