"I was born with cerebral palsy, so I've dealt with living in a world that wasn't built for me every day of my life. What better way to serve kids than to work with kids with special needs? I can be a role model and an example of what it's like to keep persevering. We all can learn and achieve our goals — it may just take practice to figure out how to make it work. I have that unique perspective, because I've had to do that my whole life. It just makes sense that I would take that knowledge and apply it to my practice as a teacher."
