My Students

"We keep moving forward, opening new doors, and doing new things, because we're curious and curiosity keeps leading us down new paths." Walt Disney

Curiosity is the key to my kids, their inquisitive nature shines through every time I introduce an unfamiliar element within the class.

They get so exited, especially when they can create something, then see the finished product completed. I truly enjoy watching the pure excitement and delight upon their faces.

My Project

"Innovation distinguishes between a leader and a follower."

Steve Jobs

This quote appealed to me because I want to expose my students to exciting state-of-the-art innovations. As an educator, I believe you never stop learning and we must be willing to learn new techniques that will further my knowledge as well.

This conference will give me to capability of sharing new technological advancements that are occurring within our S.T.E.M community. I want to give my students the opportunity to learn, to discover, to explore, and experience cutting-edge artistry that they are genuinely never see or have been exposed to within their home life or community.
