Favorite elementary school memory: I went to Catholic School during Elementary, I remember sitting in a small room with a Curious George that reached the ceiling, and we could sit on him and read.
Why did I enter the field of education? I decided to go into teaching when I had a middle life career change. I was always teaching people how to do different things they did not know how to do.

I liked working with the special ed students, so I decided to go back to school for a MA while helping her complete her BS.
