Philosophical Biography

I believe the call to education is very much a ministry in expanding the Kingdom of God.  As a teacher, not only am I given the opportunity to teach reading and writing skills, but also of modeling Christ to young people.  The mission and vision of Christian education resonates with my own beliefs that every student can learn, and that every student is made in the image of God and therefore deserves to be served and loved.
