Why are you passionate about supporting fellow teachers?
I am passionate about supporting fellow teachers because, though we are many, we are one collective voice and influence that can enhance the profession. Through collaboration and sharing experiences, strategies, and resources we build a network of teachers working to create enriching experiences and improve teaching for all students.

What do you love most about teaching?
I love giving students the opportunity to learn concepts and topics beyond the classroom while connecting them to their own worlds. I get rewarded seeing students grow as leaders, developing their own skills and confidence.
