I am a Higher Education Consultant and an Affirmations Guru.

Tell us about yourself

I am a lover of education. I have five degrees, including an associate's, bachelor's, two master's, and a Ph.D. Three of my degree are in higher education. I have over 20 years of experience in higher education and have worked in almost every area. I love changing the world one student at a time. That is my motto and my goal. In the process of helping students, I was blessed with an opportunity to help others love themselves. I am now known as the Affirmations Guru. I pride myself on being a child of GOD who helps others succeed while loving themselves and others.
