What do you like best about your involvement in education?

I love being able to make a difference in students lives. I might be the only positive role model that they ever come in contact with. I want students to leave my class better than they came in and liking school just a little bit better than they did before they took my class. I want them to know that they can change their lives no matter where they currently are and I want them to know I believe in them. I had a few teachers in my life that made me a better person and I hope I am one of those teachers for my students.

How I spend my free time

With my wonderful husband and two sons. We love to play outside, go shopping and go out to the movies. Sports is a main part of everything we do because my boys love to play it and watch it. Church and community service is also a big part of our lives along with music.
