Her academic journey is built upon her previous accomplishments, which consist of obtaining a Bachelor of Science in Management from an Associate of Arts degree. In her free time, she enjoys decorating, gardening, being surrounded by plants, and making the space around her beautiful.

“My personal affirmation is “my presence is my purpose” and I have learned that I thrive when I am present with others. Success is embracing gifts and being present for others as they navigate life.”
