Tell us about yourself.

I'd always had a passion for teaching. When I was a kid, I played school with my siblings, and I was always the teacher. Growing up, I enjoyed going on mission trips with my youth group to places such as Haiti and Peru, where we would create a Sunday school for the children. This just made my love for teaching grow stronger. When it came to the point where I had to choose my major for college, an education major was the only option in my mind. I hoped to make a difference with this career, and I believed that the world could never have enough inspirational teachers.
