Name of FCPS School you currently work at and your position: 
Woodson HS; Marketing Education and Athletic & Sports Leadership Teacher

What inspired you to return as a FCPS staff member?
I loved coaching during my college years, and felt that working with kids was a really rewarding profession. I had so many great memories and mentors during my time at Woodson, and I appreciated all they did for me and I am hoping I can do the same for my students and athletes.

What’s your fondest memory as a student here, and how does it influence your time as a FCPS staff member?
Some of my best memories are through athletics and being apart of SGA Leadership. I think because of those experiences I have the ability to talk to kids about things outside of the pure academic focus. While academics are important, the experiences outside of the classroom can be just as important and likely the things you remember most.

Are there any colleagues or mentors who inspired you as a student? If they are still here, what’s it like working with them now?
Absolutely! It is awesome to work with them now, because I still get the opportunity to learn from them and work along side of them now.
