I discovered my love for science at a early age and developed a healthy curiousity for the world we live in.  During my high school years,  I thrived in science course which fed my curitiosy for the world around us. I attended the University of Mount Olive where I majored in Biology but focused on animal behavior. When I left UMO, I discoverd that I wanted to share my passion for science with others and returned to UMO to become a high school teacher. As a teacher, I want to encourge students to strive to understand how the world works and instill a curiousity for learning.
