Why did you want to become a teacher?
The opportunity to positively impact students motivates me each day. Learning should be FUN and I enjoy helping children discover that love for learning.

What excites you about Norfolk Academy?
I appreciate Norfolk Academy's holistic approach to learning. Even in first grade, there are countless opportunities for my students to grow beyond academics, whether through developing public speaking skills, practicing honor and integrity, or participating in dance class.

What's one fun fact about you students might find interesting?
I have wanted to be a teacher since I was in the first grade myself!
