Why is Journey Through Education a product and company you support?
It is important to take the time to reflect and invest in yourself as
a person. Educators are givers who constantly give to others without
refueling themselves which leads to burnout.
What is your favorite thing about being an educator?
Inspiring others, observing learning and growth, making an impact that
last a lifetime or generations to come
What is your favorite conference to attend?
What have been your biggest adventures…in your career and personally?
- Moving from an urban district to a rural district has been an
adventure.- Going through the National Board Certification process was
unforgettable.- Personally learning to walk as an adult after a major
car accident was quite an experience.

Do you have any upcoming travel plans?
Not in the near future, but I love the Caribbean.
