My passion for teaching goes far beyond the confines of the classroom. It’s a dedication to ensuring that every teacher, especially new ones, can confidently step into their role and foster positive change in their students’ lives. The turning point for me was a heartbreaking personal loss in December 2017 when I lost someone very close.
Seeing teachers who had recognized signs that my family member was struggling, yet were stretched to their limits, truly touched my heart. It became crystal clear that teachers needed more support, not only for their students but also for themselves. This realization formed the bedrock of ‘The Present Teacher.’ I’m committed to helping educators show up as their best selves, not only for their students but also for their own well-being.
Teaching is my life’s purpose, and as I transition out of the classroom, I’m driven to ensure that upcoming teachers have the resources and guidance they need to flourish and make the impact they were destined to achieve. My goal is to empower educators to create a future where no teacher is overwhelmed by burnout, where districts provide adequate support, and where teachers feel confident in their ability to be present and make a difference.
At 'The Present Teacher,' my mission is clear: I'm here to support teachers on their journey to becoming the best version of themselves. If you're here to embark on this transformative path, you've come to the right place.
