I am from the first graduating class of HSA Cleveland High School. My academic experience was deeply rewarding, and that was, in large part, due to the dedicated, supportive, and passionate teachers at HSA. I am an educator because of those teachers and my love for children. I want to inspire and motivate my students just as my teachers have done for me.

I absolutely love and enjoy teaching Special Education at HSA. I get work at a school that I love and teach amazing students.
