I am a teacher for life. I began my teacher journey twelve years ago and each year I am more in love with my calling in life. Each child that walks through my classroom door inspires me to be better. Each year I learn how to be a better educator. My students are enthusiastic learners. They are curious about the world around them. They are hungry for an opportunities. They are looking for that chance that might change their lives. I aspire to facilitate their learning and will work hard to get them the tools necessary to help them give back to their community and change the world.
