After working eight years in retail I obtained a Master's Degree in teaching to start my second career. Fern Creek High School is not only where I currently teach but also my alma mater. I love teaching -- knowing that every day when you set foot in your job you have the power to change lives is something most other vocations cannot live up to! Twitter --@wcolon185
