Nelson Mandela called education ‘the most powerful weapon’ to change the world. I believe every student deserves a quality education, and that begins with having a quality teacher. I love that this work allows me to work at all levels of our education system to ensure that teachers have the opportunity to develop in their practice to best support our nation’s students.”
