As a kid, Mrs. Adams' role model was her grandmother, and she has always aspired to be like her. Mrs. Adams said that, “The reason I wanted to become a teacher in the first place is because my grandmother and mother were teachers; I had been surrounded by teachers my entire life. My high school English teacher, Mrs. Hodges, pushed me to pursue teaching because she saw my passion for education and children. It’s something I feel like I was born to do.”
