As a lifelong learner, the classroom is a place of joy for me and a space of mutual learning. I have taught since 2001, but my teaching involves many aspects of my life—from being the oldest of three siblings, mothering two daughters, and 25 years working in the industry. My overarching approach embraces a past/present/future framework. Together we recognize the past (including those that have been erased or unrecognized), acknowledge the present, and consider the impact of our work in the future. What kind of history and footprint do we create and leave behind?
