Q&A

What is your favorite spot on Gilman's campus?
My favorite spot on campus is the Gilman room on Wednesday when we meet for lunch and Bible study.

Why do you enjoy teaching at Gilman?
As a product of single-sex education, I have always enjoyed teaching boys and helping them develop from adolescents to young men. Boys can really be themselves in the Gilman environment. I particularly love the long-term relationships I develop with my advisees and their families.

What inspired you to become a teacher?
I was inspired to become a teacher by my father, who dedicated 30 years of his life to the public schools of Baltimore.
