I am honored to have been chosen among such amazing people. The passion my students bring makes my job what it is and I’m thankful to them and to @FerrisState for giving me the opportunity to grow as an educator every day.
Sad I couldn’t be down in Florida to celebrate 🎉
Thank you for guiding and empowering your students!
