I am originally, from Chicago.  I am influenced and inspired by my long history of family & relatives in the teaching profession. I’ve attended Northeastern Illinois University where I received my BA in Elementary Education with a minor in Linguistics. Furthering my career, I have also studied at St. Xavier University where I earned a Masters in Educational Administration and Supervision. I graduated with honors and was inducted into Kappa Delta Pi, International Honor Society in Education. I continued my education with the American College of Education and received another Masters in Curriculum and Instruction. I had the honor and privilege to work for Chicago Public Schools which is the 3rd largest school district in the United States.

 I continue to further my own education, studies, research, life experiences and curiosities each and every day of my life.
