Why I do what I do
 I wanted to be a teacher when I was 5 years old.  I would hang my chalkboard on my bedroom closet door and hold my sister captive until she mastered the stuff I was teaching. She ended up being 2 grade levels ahead in elementary school.  I’ll take some credit for that.

Fun fact
If I wasn’t a teacher, I would work at a zoo.  I love animals.
