Biography
It is my conviction that education is the key to success in any discipline. We are behavioristic in nature and are constantly engaged in learning activities, formal and/or informal. I applaud those who have made the decision to participate in activities that will ensure their continued growth and development.
I have been actively involved in educational facilitation as an Adjunct Instructor, Information Technology Trainer and Mentor for more than 20 years. I serve as a member of the St. Petersburg College Corporate Training Advisory Board (past member of the Business Technologies Advisory Board). I am a seasoned Information Technology (IT) practitioner and a 26-year veteran of local government. My educational credentials include: Bachelor of Science in Psychology with a minor in Biology, Florida State University; Master of Arts Degree in Guidance and Counseling, University of South Florida; Doctoral Studies in Business Administration/Management and Educational Leadership. I serve as an Adjunct Instructor in Applied Ethics at St. Petersburg College and as the Systems Development Manager for the City of St. Petersburg. I am the proud mother of an accomplished young performing artist. Besides enjoying my young protege's performances, my interests include traveling, reading, and music, community involvement.
