ABOUT ME:

Born to highly educated parents, completing college was always a high priority for me.  Faced with the decision to have my second child or finish my degree, I chose the former with the intention of getting back to school when my youngest child started school full time.  In the summer of 2010, I walked into the first classroom I had been in almost 12 years.

I am currently completing a double major in political science and communications with a minor in campaign management.  My expected graduation date will be Fall of 2012.  Already having real world experience in the fields of political campaigns and public relations, has been extremely helpful in completing my coursework.  Working full time on a major political campaign, as a communications director and being a single mom to three, has poised a challenge, but will ultimately result in a better lifestyle for my family.
