About
Growing up within the Washington area I have always known that education is the key in making my life the best it can be financially and it also gave me many opportunities to learn new skills of making better job opportunities as I stopped school to raise my children as a young single parent I lose the sight for a moment being a single parent but I enforced that continued knowledge within my children but for reason unseen my children lost sight but I haven't. Therefore, after raising up my three children and becoming a empty nest "sort-of-speak" I decided to go back and start finishing all that I have started within my educational career. In 2004, I went back and completed cosmetology schooling and in 2006 graduated to as salutatorian, next, in 2008 I enrolled back into PGCC to complete my Associates degree but ended up continuing further to pursued my Bachelors degree from UMUC 2014 with honors and even though I continuously worked full time and completed both study programs full time through on-line classes here I am again getting "ready set" for graduated school in 2016 and during and /or upon my completion of the master's program I will obtain and secure the financial stability needed that will also give me the opportunities to further education myself within a job the will not only utilize my gained education, knowledge, and skills but one that will have endless growth.
