Hometown: Sacramento
Major: Teacher Credentialing Program. Plans to graduate
in December 2005.
Background: Graduated from Sac State in spring 2004 with
a bachelor’s degree in childhood development. Currently part of
the first class of student teachers to work and attend university classes
at the Urban Teacher Education Center in the Sacramento City Unified School
District. Most recently taught in a 5th-grade class at Washington Elementary

Proudest accomplishment: “My proudest accomplishment
so far is graduating from college. I’d never expected to go to college.
In my high school career center I heard about Sac State’s open enrollment
program. I went and was accepted on the spot. Here I am!”
Changes: “My personality has really changed in
the seven years since I started school here as an undergraduate. I was
very shy back then. Now I’m a lot more open and I communicate better
with people.”
Highlight: “The professors have inspired me to
think and have an opinion.”
Destination: “I love teaching elementary school,
especially in urban schools. Teaching is something I’ve always really
wanted to do.”
