What do you like about Southern Wells?
First off, I am a Raider at heart. My parents graduated from here, I graduated from here, and my sons will graduate from here. I like that it feels like home. It is also small enough that people can develop real relationships with one another and everyone can find a place to belong.
What is your favorite part of your job?
I really enjoy interacting with my students. That is by far the best part of my job.
If you were animal, what would you be?
I’d be a house dog. They basically lay around, receive attention from their family, and eat. That sounds like a perfect life to me.
Grilled Cheese or cheese toastie?
It is a grilled sandwich with cheese in it. Therefore it is a grilled cheese sandwich.
What is the craziest thing that has happened to you on the job?
I had a student vomit on another student so profusely that we had to evacuate my classroom for 2 days while they cleaned and fumigated the room.
If you stranded on an island, what 3 items would you bring with you and why?
I would bring fishing equipment, so I could be entertained and eat. I would bring my family so I wouldn’t be lonely, and I would bring a basketball goal and basketball combo so I could play every day. That would make my life just about ideal.
