About Me:
Even as a young child, I knew I wanted to become a teacher. I believe that teaching is a calling--not just a career or a job I have to do; rather, I consider teaching as something I am privileged to do. I have the opportunity to encourage and educate young minds every, single day. I do not take that responsibility lightly, and I am truly grateful for it.
Col. 3:17
