My entire life has been devoted to helping people and how to make a world a better place.  I was born and raised in Los Angeles, CA, where I attended one of the top public high school in the nations called Los Angeles Center for Enriched Studies. I graduated from there in the year 2001.

While attending high school I was involved in numerous activities within my church and my community, which taught me leadership and discipline skills. The most prominent activity I participated in was singing in a community choir called the Los Angeles Inner City Choir, where we as choir members would help the Los Angeles Community through songs and volunteering our time. While participating in this choir I earned numerous awards as a singer in competitions for three years. This choir helped developed my maturity level, established my ability to travel, and taught me how to handle pressure.  I also gained high energy, and pride in accomplishments.

In the year of 2006 I graduated from Morgan State University where I majored in political science and minored in pre-law, with a concentration in international business.  I took numerous classes at this university that helped carve out my niche into society.  Courses like Constitutional Law, Philosophy of Law, Scopes and Methods, Public Policy, Global Studies, International Relations, Economics 201 and 202, and Business 101, which helped develop my analytical, communication, and research skills.  These courses also help me gain an understanding of domestic and international laws.

In 2009, I was accepted into the M.S. program at the University of Baltimore in their Negotiations and Conflict Management department.  This is the place where I discovered my passion to work with families and children within the court system. Within this program I have taken courses like, Negotiations and Assessing Conflict which has given me the stepping stone on how to analyze and handle conflict.
