What is the most rewarding part of your job?
The most rewarding part of my job was when the student's came back to say thank you or during times where I have encountered them as adults being successful participants in society. It's the thank you's that make it all worthwhile.

How did your experience at Slippery Rock University help you find your first position after graduation?
Actually the friendships I made at SRU helped me find my first teaching position. A group of us navigated south and all ended up getting teaching positions in the same area.
