What is the most inspiring part of your job?
"I absolutely love to walk into a classroom where you can see the wonder and joy on the faces of students, whether that be from finding a beautiful pattern in math, reading of characters of great courage and wisdom in literature and history, or even from learning the rich stories of Latin words which have formed much of our language today. We have a great responsibility as teachers, and it brings me great joy to walk alongside our teachers in this important work."
