I am an elementary education student with an endorsement in literacy at the University of Idaho. I am

passionate about education, especially at the elementary level. I hope to become a teacher that
facilitates engaging, student-led learning in my classroom. I enjoy collaborating and working with other
humans. I believe this is one of the only ways we can grow as learners and as people.
