What inspired you to be a Teacher?
"I used to work as a personal trainer after college and worked with many teachers who planted the seed of an idea that I’d make a great teacher. After their suggestions and my own life changes, I realized I had a passion for learning, education, and mentorship, which lead me to Aurora Christian. I find joy in and highly value the Christian environment that ACS provides both students and staff."
