How I Got Into Education: I was leading a non-profit and did not feel in sync with the mission. We had hosted 2 recent high school graduates as interns and, in mentoring them, I realized that I enjoyed helping them learn about our work. This combination of factors pointed me in the direction of teaching.

How I Got Into Education: I have always enjoyed working with kids and love the energy they bring to school.  During college, I interned with a program called Peace Games and taught conflict resolution classes to elementary school students.    Later, after working as a job coach for adults with developmental disabilities, I knew I wanted to work with this population at a younger stage in their education.  These two experiences led me to my career as a Special Education Teacher.

Hobbies: Running, Reading, Crafting
