My aspirations for becoming a teacher have only started about a year ago. I have been coaching cross-country at Bear Creek High School for four years now and only recently have decided that I love the way high schoolers think (they know everything). With track season underway my favorite thing is watching each individual progress and succeed. It seems that all of the hard things become worth it and wash away.I have learned that balance is the key, in having three other jobs. I have been coaching a half marathon team for three years for a non-profit corporation called the Chrons and Colitis Foundation of America CCFA. This is the funnest job I have ever had and the most challenging. This year I will be coaching two teams one will be running in Kona, Hawaii and the other in Napa, California. Hopefully, I get to go to both. Now for the worst job, I work part time at Dick's Sporting Goods as the running specialist. Lastly, I work for my dads office as an IT tech for his office. Anything from setting up a computer network and interfacing it with the other machines to sweeping the floor, you name it I have had to fix it.

In short, I want to become a teacher because I love school and learning. As a teacher I will always be learning something new from the students and from further research in subjects I love.
