I grew up in Florissant, in the public school system. I valued the education I received. I then attended and graduated from the University of Missouri- St. Louis, following my passion, teaching. Since graduating, I have been able to pursue my career in education. In the Ferguson Florissant school district, I have completed two years of teaching. I have taught 3rd grade one year, and recently taught 6th. Each year, my students have made an impact on me. They will always hold a place in my heart and be my students. I am dedicated to helping others succeed. Which is what brought me to teaching. I want to share my passion with others and be apart of their growth. Seeing my students learn in the greatest enjoy in the world. I truly believe I have the best job on earth.
