All About Me

"Leadership and learning are indispensable to each other."

Colorguard

I've had several leadership opportunities.  My first major leadership opportunity occurred in high school.  I was co-captain of my color guard team for two years.  As co-captain it was partially my responsibility to; teach routines, see that the members of the team were in good academic standing, and to help monitor behavior at games and practices.   I was also the student director of my school's production of Alice in Wonderland.  During this time I had to help in learning lines, give stage direction, and help with sets.

After graduation I was a Sunday school teacher for the 3 to 5 year olds at my church and activities leaders for the 8-11 year old girls.  On my mission I also had to help in training other missionaries, teach lessons, and attend meetings.  This gave me another opportunity at leadership.

After my mission I returned home and was hired as a paraprofessional.  During my 2 years of employment I taught Spanish, Direct Instruction reading, and several other classes.  During most of these classes I was under the observation of certified teachers, but I was the authority over the students.  I also taught an early morning Bible study group at my church, for the juniors and seniors.  Now I am once again the activities leader for the 8-11 year old girls.
