What would you be doing if you were not in this field?

I would be a teacher.   My mom and sister are teachers, so it's always been a part of our family.   I love helping people learn.  This is probably why I'm so drawn to Next Generation Education and Family Governance because it allows me to bring out my teaching skills.
