Why do you want to teach:
My entire life has been about education and learning, and with the opportunities that the Robert Noyce program has given me, it was an easy choice to make. My parents are both educators at the University of South Florida. They both inspire me to dedicate my life to teaching and education.

When I was a student at USF, I occasionally tutored in the Urban Scholars Outreach Program. I had a number of good experiences working with students from urban communities.

The Noyce Program has meant that I could become an educator myself. The program opens doors to a real community of teaching professionals.
