Passion Quotes

To improve our schools, we have to humanize them and make education personal to every student and teacher in the system. Education is always about relationships.

Great teachers know they have to cultivate curiosity, passion and creativity in their students.

I cook all the time. It's a passion of mine. Mostly, I eat clean, unprocessed food, a lot of vegetables, and protein. I work out daily; at home, I row and do yoga and P90x.

Whenever I can get outside, I love stand-up paddle boarding, surfing, and cycling.
