Quotes
"In education, you are actively challenged on a daily basis to show up for yourself and others. I like the challenge, but I love the giving back part. During the pandemic, I brought back former students from all over the country over Zoom to talk to our seniors about what it's like out there and whether they were able to achieve their dreams. They all valued learning and the realization that the things we say and do have long-term consequences. It's rewarding to see the real-world connections between what we talk about in the classroom and their experience out there in the world."
