Reflecting on past experiences...
The last years have been overwhelming in a wonderful way...
As time passes, my professional growth as an educator and a person have not had boundaries.
I arrived in Tennessee two years ago and it feels like the culmination of years of experiences around the world.
Now, I have the opportunity to unleash every lesson learned and the challenges presented by many students who made me a better educator.
My colleagues, administrators and professional community in this great state have embraced my passion for teaching.
I know there is more to be done.
The world is changing too fast and I need to keep up with it.
I still have tons more to learn.
I continue...
