Summary
I am a relationship-focused teacher who believes strongly that he can impact the next generation to better tomorrow's world. I believe that I was made to be a teacher and have been working with kids since I was fourteen. I cannot see myself doing anything else with my life other than seeing kids accomplish their dreams and realize their potential. I have a gift in leadership roles and have had multiple life experiences that have allowed me to thrive in such positions (Restaurant manager, small group leader, guitar teacher, classroom teacher, tennis instructor, etc...). I thrive when working with teams to accomplish goals. My experience and qualifications have prepared me for the next step of becoming a classroom teacher full-time, and I have full confidence that I will impact my present and future students for the better. I believe I am an essential asset for you to work alongside in raising America's future adults.
