This is (some of ) my family.  I am a single mother of two children, 14 and 16.  I also have two step children that I helped raise, 23 and 25 and a niece, 18.  Last but not least, my (step) grand-daughter who is now 2 yrs old.

I am originally from Coatesville, PA.  I graduated with my bachelor’s degree in Sociology/Criminal Justice from East Stroudsburg University in 1996 and my Master of Social Work degree from Widener University in 2002.  I later switched into the field of education and earned my Home and School Visitor/School Social Work and Secondary School Counseling certificates.  I most recently passed my School Leadership exam and will soon hold a Principal Certification.

My goal is to complete my Doctorate in Educational Leadership. I am not exactly sure what I will do or what my next job will be once I earn this degree.  I am hopeful that the opportunity will present itself when it is time.
