In the Beginning

Sometimes, the best place to start isn't always the beginning. Trust me. I like where I'm at now way better than where I started. Although, I will admit, I did enjoy the in-between immensely. With that being said, here we are.
 
Since this is my first post, I will keep it short and sweet. I am on fire for what I do. I love every part of my job (except Excel) and look forward to going in to work everyday. I have been slowly working towards my ultimate goal of total world domination, and I've been enjoying every minute of it. I am constantly searching for ways to make my material relevant and interesting, and I drive my family crazy with my random outbursts of "Oh I can use this for an assignment!" or "Hey what do you think about this topic?"
 
I am also interested in leadership. Not the "I'm your boss; do what I say" kind of leadership.......I want to lead and to serve. I don't just want to put my ideas into action; I want to hear yours too! Being a good leader is being a good listener, right?
 
I want to make students think, and I want to make them question. I want to see everyone, students and colleagues alike, realize their full potential. I want to make sure everyone has a shot at an education despite their lack of support, income, or preparedness. Lofty ideals? Maybe. Do I think accomplishing these goals will be easy? No, but I don't give up, and I don't let fear or self-doubt sway me. I want to make a difference and to do something that matters. So that's what I'm doing.
