Why are you passionate about supporting fellow teachers?
I believe the team that you work with is important to both your success and the success of your students. I remember feeling like I needed more support from my team and not knowing how to ask for it.
Why do you love working for NNPS?
I love working for NNPS because it always feels like we are looking for ways to improve! Students change, practices eolve, and NNPS seems to support us all moving forward, not staying in the same spot!

What do you love most about teaching?
The students. I love challenging myself to keep them engaged so behavior issues are down.
What is the best way to describe your classroom on a typical day?
Organized chaos, in the best way. Everyone doing what they should be doing, but also enjoying being in the environment.
