As I reflect on my three years as a maximum-security teacher, I am constantly reminded of what happened behind Door 7. There were tears, growth, teamwork, struggles, long hours of studying, failures and successes and so much more behind Door 7, all because my students were "Brave Enough to Make a Change". When you believe in someone, you never know what can happen. I believed in my students and they began believing in themselves.  

​

My proudest moment with these students was that as each one graduated, he asked whom he could help next. I truly saw how powerful the ripple effect can be.

​

I was gifted a new set of eyes, and a new appreciation for life behind Door 7, and I am forever changed and grateful.

 

I started my new speaking business, The 7th Door, to motivate educators, business teams, and others to optimize on opportunities 

and value risks. I provide techniques for connecting with students, colleagues, and others. Through storytelling, mindfulness practices, and group engagement we collaborate to achieve common objectives.
