The time spent at Sam's club after obtaining an associates degree, within a year of graduating High School. This was influenced by previous teachers pushing for advance courses for college credit. At this experience has reinforced time management and dealing with large amounts of pressure. Working in retail has also given experience working with many different personality types. It has also helps make quick decisions responding to any issues that arise.
I have a large collection of books including historical analysis, pleasure reading, fantasy, sci fi and cook books. My hobby with table-top-gaming, like dnd, has helped sharpen my improvisational skills, taking unique solutions to solve problems and how I speak. Finally history is just a fun subject that I truly enjoy, which has influenced my decision to become a history teacher.
