Extracurricular Activities:

I will forever cherish the experiences that I had as a student at Emory & Henry! The courses that I took, and the incredible professors and faculty members that I worked with at E&H have helped me to feel prepared and comfortable teaching in a PK-12 environment, and also helped me to easily adapt to the challenges that I have faced in teaching courses and students at the undergraduate level.
