James Sainz

I love seeing that moment in students when they finally get a topic; that “aha” moment. I love showing them the wonders of physics!

Tell us why you became a teacher

I became a teacher to instill in the younger generation a sense of wonder curiosity about the world. I want to convey to them the importance of science and to inspire the underrepresented demographics to pursue science as a career.

What would you do with the $25,000?

I would pay off student loans and buy more lab equipment.
