Working with students is my passion. I have been a football and basketball coach for nearly twenty years. Becoming a classroom teacher has fulfilled a life-long dream that will never get old.
My primary goal as an educator is to do my part in reducing the incarceration rate amongst inner-city youth. Research suggests that there is a direct correlation between high school dropouts and incarceration. Therefore, building learning strategies and skills will help to dismantle the school to prison pipeline.
Obstacles Don't Have To Stop You,
If You Run Into A Wall
Don't Turn Around And Give Up,
Figure Out How To Climb It,
Go Through It, Or Work Around It
