Biography
Maya Angelou said, “I come as one but I stand as 10,000."
I carry this quote in my heart and it has guided me throughout my life. I am interested in learning more about how the world affects our children learning specifically our ADOS and BIPOC children. I understand that I have a gift and I am honored to be able to use my voice and knowledge as power to educate the world but importantly to create the change needed in our education systems to keep the needs of children at the center.
