What do you enjoy most about working with students?
The part I love most about working with students is being able to watch them grow and succeed. I enjoy being able to provide support and guidance to students and help them discover their own path. Watching a student accomplish their goals is the most rewarding feeling and I am very passionate about helping students achieve their aspirations.
What is your favorite quote?
Sometimes you will never know the value of a moment until it becomes a memory.- Dr.Seuss
What is one surprising thing about you that not many people may not know?
I love animals and finding new experiences to interact with them. So far, I have gone swimming with dolphins in the Bahamas, hand-fed fish to a sea lion, had a seal kiss my cheek, pet a sloth and an aardvark, played with a baby lion and baby tiger, bottle-fed a baby tiger, had a full grown tiger lick my hand, and played with pigs at a cafe in Japan.
