Kristen Ham

Kristen Ham has loved books and language since childhood, absorbing stories and stringing together words until they grew into a magical place called a classroom. Here, Kristen has the joy of encouraging and challenging her high school students to think beyond the obvious, analyze the purpose behind the rhetoric, and view the world with kindness. After 25 years of playing the role of the teacher in her own story, she plans to transition into educational leadership in the fall, with the goal of using her words to encourage the next generation of instructors and an entire school community.
