What inspired you to become an educator/choose your
profession?

I have always enjoyed reading, so I majored in English
thinking I would pursue a career in book publishing. In
undergrad, I worked for a program at Oakland University
tutoring at-risk youth in Pontiac and Oak Park and really
enjoyed getting to be a part of their success story, so I
decided to pursue a Master's degree in secondary
education. While taking classes, i subbed during the day and
really enjoyed sharing good stories with students.

What are your hobbies or interests outside of school?

Outside of school, I read a lot, hang out with my dog Milo,
and catch up on my TV shows or good movies.

Do you have a favorite quote or motto that inspires
you?

Anything worth doing, is worth doing well.
