Why did you want to become an educator?

Every student-athlete I interviewed while I was a sports writer at the Anchorage Daily News showed me I needed to be where I could make a difference in student lives. Their inspiration made it easy to follow in my father and grandmother’s footsteps.

Why do you like teaching PLS Classes?

After taking my first PLS Class in the mid-90s, I discovered how all of the classes are the epitome of relevancy. I love sharing these ideas and strategies with educators who, like me, appreciate being able to immediately use what we’ve learned from the class and each other. Every PLS Class provides structure, strategies and tools, while class discussions breathe life into the possibilities, so participants feel empowered to put ideas into action immediately.
