Three fun things about me...

My favorite books are any Stephen King short stories.

If I won a million dollars, I would put money into my kids' college fund, pay off my own student loans, take myself back to Europe, and then give a sizable donation to charity.

Why did you decide to become a teacher? I intended to be an English/Creative Writing major. I picked up an additional Education major just in case the writing job didn't work out. Then I taught my first lesson during student teaching and I loved it. I knew either career path would bring me joy.
