Hello! I am Gabriel Claypoole. I am currently nearing the end of my educational journey to become a certified teaching professional in Pennsylvania. Let me begin by telling you a little bit about myself!

Life has always made me curious. Ever since I could remember, I was analyzing my environment and questioning individual's actions. My higher educational career started right outside of high school in 2017, when I went to Immaculata University for a degree in Theology. After my major and situation at the college became impractical, I ended up leaving and getting my certification in Audio Engineering with Recording Radio Film Connections (RRFC) in 2018.

Life seemed to drag for sometime after this, until in 2021, I learned I was going to be a father. I started to really question what I wanted to be in life? All the individuals who inspired me all had one thing in common: they taught others. People like Jesus of Nazareth, Socrates, and Confucius were all story-tellers, and sought to enlighten others through their art. I ultimately decided to pick up where they left off and impact the world through teaching.

The challenges of supporting and raising a family have only given me more inspiration to stay persistent in achieving my goals of educating. In 2022, I received my Associate Degree in Secondary Education from Montgomery County Community College, before transferring to Albright College, where I received my Bachelor of Science in 2024, and now am completing my Master of Science in May of 2026.

My educational journey does not end here! I hope to complete a Doctoral Degree in either Philosophy or Law. I simply want to be a voice for the unheard, and in doing so, help individuals with their relationship to themselves and with the reality around them.
