About

I am inspiring teaching with a heart to teach and inspire young children especially in the urban community. I am very compassionate and dedicated in reaching the lives of children to become future leaders. I majored in Mathematical Sciences and Psychology at Kean University to understand to minds of students to learn math in a different ways. I am grateful through my hard work and diligence through college I have received many scholarships and rewards such as Union County College Foundation Scholarship, 2009 American Association of University Professors Scholarship, 2010 Union County College Vice President’s Honoree, 2010 Richel-Lepree Family Scholarship, 2011-2012 American Association of University Professors Scholarship, 2011-2012 Equal Opportunity Funding Highest Academic Achievement, 2011-2012 American Movie Cinema Associate Scholarship, 2011-2012 Kean University EOF Honors List , Fall and Spring 2015. Moreover, I would be a great fit for the Honor Society, because I know that Honor Society is a get supporter of students overachieving. I would be proud to be apart of a group that respect and recognize honor's not just in school but in their community and work place.
