ADDITIONAL BIOGRAPHICAL INFORMATION

As we know as educators, teaching is so much more than just a job. It can be thankless and underappreciated, but I truly believe that it is one most important professions on the planet. Every day I show up to teach my students Spanish to open their eyes and their minds so that they can go forth into the world with more understanding, compassion, and confidence. So, I love to tell my students that I am teaching for the money and the fame, to grab their attention and make them realize that neither of those things are true and that I am really here for them.
