Speaking to Deseret News in an interview, the substitute teacher identified herself as 21-year-old Audrey Wells. In the TikTok, Wells describes her first day as a substitute teacher and said she is the "political unrest that Cedar City needs."
"There are many things I would like to talk about, but today I would like to talk about how I am the political unrest that Cedar City needs," Wells said.

One of her 10th-grade students at Cedar High School asked what her pronouns meant. She said that they were "confused" and then told her students that they can’t "misgender" her.

Wells told the outlet that she was "surprised" her video caught so much attention after her friends told her what happened. She also said that her comments were an attempt at "humor."

The Iron County School District does not have access to records of substitutes and jobs they completed last year, so they could not confirm that she worked there.
Furthermore, the school district spokesperson verified that Wells is not a current employee and that the school district "does not have a policy about sharing pronouns."
