Why Do I Teach?:
Teaching is a good profession for me because I can always improve and be creative. A challenge I love to meet is to work with new students each year and get them to love science. I want all of my students to see the value in science and how it applies to their lives. Teaching gives my creative side an outlet. I'm always improving and changing what I do. I've also been involved in several technology grants which have drastically changed how I teach and what the student do in the classroom.
