Favorite Real-World Experiences as a Student
My favorite memory of Mount Union was traveling with Dr. Kramer on the Social Responsibility trip to Nicaragua during my junior year. My worldview expanded, and Dr. Kramer changed my life for the better. I learned the true meaning of social responsibility and my obligation to serve my community. In addition, studying abroad in Viterbo, Italy taught me the importance of expanding my perspective and challenging myself beyond my comfort zone.
Job as a High School Teacher
I teach United States History, AP Psychology, and Introduction to Psychology at Alliance High School. My students are the absolute best part of my job. Every day, I have the opportunity to learn and grow with them. My students make me a better person and teacher.
Career Goals
I was chosen as Ohio's James Madison Fellowship recipient, and as such, I hope to represent my school well at a national level at the James Madison Summer Institute, while earning my master's degree in American History and Government. I am excited about the progress I have made thus far and I have already seen an impact on my classroom. Therefore, a career goal I hope to achieve is to earn my master's degree someday soon so that I can further enrich my students' learning.
