MCC MS/HS Staff Member Spotlight - Mr. Maki
What/Who inspired you to work in education?
My Mom worked in public education for 53 years and she played a big role in me becoming a teacher. When I worked at Eden Prairie I was able to work one:one with a student named Ali Ahktar, and that time working convinced me to get my teaching credential.
What is the most rewarding part of working at MCC?
Being able to work for the school and district I graduated from is pretty humbling. I had A LOT of great teachers during my time as a student. I love being part of the MCC staff, helping students see and reach their full potential.
What is one fun fact that students and colleagues might not know about you?
When I lived in Arizona, I tangled with scorpions, a tarantula and a rattle snake!
What hobbies or activities do you enjoy outside of school?
I enjoy fishing, hunting, sports, spending time with family and friends and my dogs.
How do you hope to make a difference here at MCC?
Leading by example, being consistent and adding humor to it all.
What is one piece of wisdom you would like to share?
Time is your most valuable asset; spend it wisely.
