Teaching for me is about going above and beyond the classroom. It’s about not only being their teacher but a lifelong cheerleader.

Tell us why you became a teacher

When I was in pre k, my teacher and I developed a special bond . To this day she calls me every year without fail to tell me happy birthday . I have always wanted to be that person she was for me for someone else .

Tell us about your most memorable teaching experience

When I went to Disney , I surprised a student on her first trip as well . The way that she ran to me when she saw me is a sight I will never forget .

What would you do with the $25,000?

This money would help me start my adult life . I have dreams of becoming a homeowner , and although I’ve loved all 104 of my students these past 4 years , I would love the chance to start a family of my own .
