Can you guess who I ran into at the White House? It was an amazing experience. I can not thank Jill Biden and her team for organizing and taking care of us so well. #eastereggroll #teacher #experienceofalifetime

I wish everyone could see what P.E. teachers across the nation are doing. These folks are doing incredible things. Shout-out KYHealthMovesMinds, Mark Housel, Outride, OSSE, @dcpsshape for making my time so amazing!

What a humbling feeling it was to sit in front of the military and have them ask 'How could we build something together.' From brainstorming field trips to getting military personnel to make surprise visits to schools. It was an amazing feeling, I can not thank them enough!

You know I gotta show love to my Waterbarian people!

Creating small habits can have such a huge impact. I started a little project with my 5th grade class, where I am trying to be a better teacher for all my students. Simply with a check-in. Over the course of a few weeks, you can see some results. Slowly but sure I will get there!

Thanks for having us CFP Extra Yard and eckrichmeats !

We appreciate your dedication and commitment to education. Thanks for watching FOX 5 DC! #GoBlue

Heard about someone doing this just this past month. And this person’s encouragement and mentorship of another person led to a truly deserving teacher applying. (I can’t say more…but there will be a part II to this…) SHAPE America

Truer words, if anything last weekend taught me, that this isn't the end of my victories. More to come, I can feel it! Thank you ETS for a great weekend! 💗
