#FCPSTeacherTuesday "I grew up as a military child, which meant my environment was always changing. One of the few constants in my life was school. I was the teacher’s pet, driven by a desire to succeed and make school feel like a stable, safe place. Over time, school became my home away from home, and it was this experience that inspired me to pursue a career in teaching. My goal is to create a classroom where students feel as supported and valued as I did. I want them to know that they can be true to themselves, follow their dreams, and believe in their potential. Above all, I am dedicated to helping them become the best version of themselves."
