Why did you come to work at PTCS?

I love the community and support from fellow co-workers at Christian schools.  After finishing up my teaching job overseas, I wanted to move back to the Chicagoland area and teach in a Christian school.  Having a working environment where that is Christ-centered is such a blessing.​​

What are your favorite moments with students?

My favorite moments have been watching students get creative in art class.  It’s always fascinating watching students create artwork.  You get to see them use their imagination, improve their skills, problem-solve, and sometimes try something new.
