Michelle sits on a black metal table and chair set outside on campus.

I’ve been given the opportunity to take a wide variety of art classes. I think it’s really important that as a teacher I learn a lot of different media.

Between the close-knit community, personable and caring professors and all the people with similar passions to me, Westby Hall is my home at Rowan.

I love every second I am in the classroom and teaching, even when I am not teaching photography. Being a teacher is a dream I didn’t realize I had right away, but had been all my life.
