"I didn't have anybody who recognized that skill early on, which could've changed the whole course of my life. Kind of falling back on that major conversation that we had, that was one of the driving points for me to become a teacher. I needed to be that person that somebody like me could rely on when it comes down to picking that direction, to going to. I used that as a motivational point the whole 20 years I was teaching."
