My teaching career began in 1994 with the Total Community Action Head Start of New Orleans, LA where I worked one-on-one with a special needs student. From there, I was the Director of the Salvation Army Early Learning Facility. My passion and desire to make a difference in the educational system ultimately led me to the New Orleans public school system in 1996. In 2004, my family moved to Hammond, LA. Since relocating, my devotion to education has only deepened and my career flourished even more. I am now serving as a TAP Master Teacher at the Magnificent Hammond Junior High Magnet School under the great leadership of Ms. Marquita Jackson where I work with an awesomely dedicated staff!
