Who is your most memorable teacher and why?

My most memorable teacher was my high school physics teacher, Mr. Gill. His enthusiasm for the subject matter was demonstrated by his creative use of kids toys to explain physics in a fun and accessible way. With respect given to all of his students, Mr. Gill encouraged us to challenge ourselves to keep learning and growing.

If you could spend an afternoon however you desired, what would you do?

An afternoon spent however I desired would be hiking with my family in a new location. We enjoy exploring the diverse world God created and sometimes the only way to see it is on a hike.
