Tell us why you became a teacher

I wanted to be a part of building a better future by educating and equipping the ones who would be shaping that future.

Tell us about your most memorable teaching experience

My most memorable experience came from a young woman who had graduated several years before. She had a successful career and was starting a family. She told me how instrumental I was in shaping her future because I was the only teacher who had ever told her she “could do it”…and made her believe it! We never know what impact we might have on our students…so we should never quit trying to reach and inspire them.

What would you do with the $25,000?

I would take my beautiful wife on a much earned, definitely needed, and long dreamed of vacation to Europe. I would also have to spoil the grandkids a little…
