Her love for her students, family and faith are what keep her motivated and always bubbly. She keeps herself busy outside of work as well. She often times will get up early to meditate and read scripture before getting her two children Jolee, 10 and Tye, 8, ready for school. Her and her husband Joe also belong in their church band and play at least once a month during service. Her family and students are very important to her and she credits her faith in God in giving her the strength to continue her work.
