Summary
After recently determining that I have never held a genuinely rewarding career and witnessing the love of teaching my mother once had, my aim is to follow in her footsteps and share my love of mathematics with Perry County students. I hope my leadership skills developed over years in manufacturing will help me maintain a classroom environment where consistency is the rule, procedures are followed, and skills mastery is the norm.
