Christian Jr/Sr High School
I believe in the importance of challenging, strengthening, and encouraging students in their faith at school (where they spend the majority of their day!). I believe that a school environment operating from a biblical worldview is especially important for junior/senior high students, who are often seeking to understand who they are.
I love watching movies with my family, reading God's Word, watching sports especially soccer (go Barcelona!) and the UFC, listening to music, and working out. I was going to be an F-16 fighter pilot, marine biologist, or a lawyer before I became a teacher. Christian and K-pop music artists are my favorites and athletes such as Cris Cyborg and Lionel Messi.
I love the Word of God and have a passion to disciple the youth.
Because I have a counseling background as well, I find teaching incorporates many of my skills and gifts. One of the beauties of teaching literature is in the ability to provoke thoughts about beliefs, evaluate decisions by characters, and value objective truth.
An education without knowing our Savior is of very little value. I believe that education must be grounded in Truth and teaching at Christian Unified allows us that opportunity.
Interesting facts: I went to Christian High School, and four different family members have taught at CHS. I've coached and played basketball for CHS. I have 5 kids that attend Christian Unified.
I love watching the students grow and mature in their faith and walking alongside them and their families on their education journey.
I love art and have wanted to be a teacher since I was in second grade! It brings me such joy to be able to do both of these things every day while also sharing my faith with my students. That "Aha!" moment when a student gains understanding and mastery of a new technique or skill is such a privilege to witness and there is nothing more rewarding than seeing students express themselves creatively and show pride in what they have learned and accomplished.
I love to be outdoors whenever I can and also love to watch movie at home as much as I like being outdoors. I speak fluent Korean so watching K-drama is also something I like to do. Also, I love all kinds of food!
My life calling is to train the next generation - as a teacher in a Christian school, I am able to fully explain God's Providence through historical events.
Christian Unified is a very special place. No place is perfect, but so many people that I work with sincerely care about the people and students around them and are doing their best to encourage and love others. Being a part of this community is a privilege I am so thankful for.
I choose to be an educator at CUSSD because I believe in honing a child in a holistic approach whose foundation is the word of God. It gives me pure joy knowing that I can use my God-given talents and skills in an institution where God is lifted high!
I choose to work at Christian Unified Schools because I believe in our "mission" of teaching students to think, learn and live from a Biblical worldview. I consider it a blessing to be part of training up the next generation for Jesus at Christian Unified! And, I love my spiritual family at CUSSD!
I work for Christian Unified because I believe in their mission to educate students academically and spiritually. It’s an amazing campus with an incredible administration and staff!
