1. Introducing: Todd Zambrano

2. Hello Class, I am Todd Zambrano
Hello Class, I am Todd Zambrano! I look forward to the ride with all of you! I currently reside in Iowa City, Iowa. I do not, nor have I ever lived on a farm. Iowa city is the location of the University of Iowa, where I received my BA in Sociology and where I am a current Graduate student, in Social work.

3. I attended public schools my whole life
I attended public schools my whole life. I currently am a substitute teacher and a coach, at the high school level. I have had a variety of careers along the way, from sales to social work.
I have two beautiful daughters and have had the luxury of coaching them in basketball and soccer. My children are the most important thing in my life and I devote all my free time to them.
One of the most important things growing up was school. I came from a very hard childhood and school was an escape. I had a coach that took me under his wing and mentored me into a man, when I had no positive male role models. He would feed me, take me to church, and was crucial to my recruiting process, all while teaching valuable life lessons.

4. I look forward to becoming a full time teacher in the future
I look forward to becoming a full time teacher in the future. I feel obtaining my Master’s degree will enable me to have a better chance to teach at varying levels. I also have an emphasis on family services, allowing me to be able to work with families and perhaps do some counseling, or more social work.

I look forward to the journey with this class. Thanks!
