Tell us a little about yourself:
I was born in Tuskegee, Alabama and I moved to Cleveland in the early seventies. I have two sons and two grandchildren. They are the love of my life. I have a Master of Education from Cleveland State University, Bachelor’s of Science, Alabama State University, Graduate Studies from various universities.
I was a secondary biology and Advanced Placement teacher in the Cleveland Metropolitan School District for forty years. I enjoyed engaging students with hands-on activities and helping them to use critical thinking skills while helping them develop academically, socially, and personally.
