I teach because from my earliest of memories, I have loved school. As a student, teacher, and administrator I have found that I just love what school does for our community from PreK to High School. The opportunity to spend my workdays with all the students and the peers who share the same goals for success is truly a blessing.  I was influenced to become a teacher by my family. There are many special needs in my family and, in particular, my sister has always been a great motivator for me to be a part of special education and regular education. To be able to provide daily lessons at everyone’s learning level is a true calling and an extraordinary type of work.
