Why Mount Union?
I chose Mount Union for the small and close campus community! I wanted to be at a school where I knew I had support from my professors and would see a familiar and friendly face everywhere I went. I love Mount Union because it gave me some of my best friends and prepared me for my future. Everywhere I go, having been a student at Mount Union makes me stand out, especially as an education major. The program is wonderful and I feel as if my professors/classes and the organizations I had the opportunity to be a part of have prepared me for my future.
Involvement
My extracurriculars helped prepare me for my career by providing me with opportunities to lead in an organization and be part of a team. I had the opportunity to learn a lot about myself, working with others, and making choices that will better an entire group of people. I recently graduated, so I haven’t gotten alumni involvement opportunities through campus yet, but I am excited to!
Career Goals
I haven’t started teaching yet, but I’m so excited to get in the classroom and use what I have learned to make a positive impact on the lives of my students. What I love the most about being a teacher is the opportunity to be the person in my students’ lives that they always know is cheering them on and has their back. I would love to continue teaching in the same district throughout the duration of my career. I look forward to opportunities to take on new roles and that education has so many different paths you can take.
