Student Quick Links
As a passionate and educated young female African-American teacher, I strive every year in the classroom to empower the next generation to develop self-confidence in their voice, choices, and life goals. I learn students personal language and help guide them to self-discovery for a skilled, creative, and self satisfied life outside of the classroom.
