Teaching is one of the most joyful parts of my life. I love seeing students’ faces light up with excitement when they realize how applicable sociology is to their lives, and when they see how theoretical concepts can be understood in creative ways.
I have wanted to become a college professor since I was five, so I’m living my dream.
