Name

What do you teach- 9th grade Global Studies

Teaching experience/education- 3rd year teaching (1st at DC), graduate of WKU

• Favorite part of your subject- Getting to travel the world everyday and doing all kinds of different projects

• One other interesting fact about you- My first paying job was at Sea World in Orlando

• A story about an educator that left an impression on you- My advocate all four years of HS was a history teacher and he was a teacher and person I knew I wanted to be like. I was like any other HS kid that didn’t know what I wanted to do with my life and he encouraged me to look into this profession because of my passion and knowledge of history and my “high energy”. His supporting of me did us both some good…I started working harder and behaving better in his classes and I eventually fell in love with teaching and working with kids. Thank you Al Reid!!!
