Why did you become a teacher? Because I hated my social studies teachers in high school.

What’s something cool you did this summer in your off time? I went to Jersey to see family.

What’s a TV show you loved to watch in high school? Buffy the Vampire Slayer because the lead character was strong, could kick butt, and very smart.

What’s a show you love now? Green Arrow, because I watch it with my sons. It’s a comic and it also has a strong and smart lead character.

What’s something people would be surprised to know about you? I broke up the most amount of fights out of any other teachers at the school I worked at in Jersey.
