Why are you passionate about working at NIET?

Education, like most everything else in the world, is changing and evolving every day. I am passionate about being part of an organization that through all of the advances and improvements, keeps student learning at the center. That is what NIET does - provides training and direction by collaborating with school districts on how best to roll these out and train teachers while keeping students in mind, meeting them where they are at.

What do you do in your free time?

I am very active in my free time and enjoy activities such as rock climbing, mountain biking, hiking, paddle boarding, snowboarding/skiing, and traveling. I also wind down and decompress in my free time with tv shows and movies.

What was your favorite subject in school and why?

I really enjoyed most science and math classes. As I've gotten older I realize that I like to solve puzzles and problems, and that I like a challenge. I was considered "brainy" and took AP Chemistry and AP Calculus, among a few other courses. You can dissect most of these to solve for the answer, and put it back together. I found that in rock climbing, I really enjoy the physics and mechanics of the moves and positions you have to make in order to climb. I like to understand the mechanics of things, and math and science are everywhere in that.
