Why did you choose to go into teaching? “I chose to go into teaching because I have a passion for mentoring teenagers and view Christian teaching as a means of pouring into the lives of younger believers. I have wanted to be a Spanish teacher since I was in first grade. I have a deep love for language and communication, and view my courses as a means of equipping our students to advance the gospel around the world.”

What do you love about CHCS? “I love Christian Heritage because of the uniquely loving community and exceptional education at our school. It is a place where believers are united in our passion for both the gospel and academics. Our students are supported as whole individuals, being poured into spiritually, mentally, emotionally, and physically. The level of excellence, the amount of love, and the enthusiasm at our school is what makes it so unique.”
