Happy Professors Series: Teaching Online, Breaking the Mold, and Leading By Example

DSC_3868 copy“I’ve honestly been thinking a lot about why I teach online at so many schools, and why I like it.  I’m in a unique situation because I’m also a military spouse, but the main reasons are that I like to challenge myself, and I need to set a good example and show my daughter that she can do anything she sets her mind to.

Lastly, I want to be able to pursue the college teaching career I started. There are so many smart and educated women (think JD’s, PhD’s, licensed counselors) who are army wives, and aren’t able to build a career when they’re moving every 2 years. I just refuse to do that, so I found a job that could accommodate me that’s in my line of expertise. I feel very fortunate that I’ve been able to keep building my career regardless of circumstance.”
