Bio of Life
Greetings Everyone-
I am a mother of two wonderful sons. Unfortunately, my youngest son passed away July 2012. Then two months later my step dad passed away and I miss them both so much. Coming up on a year after losing my son is tough, but I am trying to stay strong for my other son. My family is one of the reasons why I feel motivated to further my education. I have been so excited to get back in school after seven years and I have been really motivated. For a moment I was at a standstill, but that was because I decided to procrastinate. After not passing the FCAT math I did not receive my diploma even though I have all my credits so I had to go back and get my GED. I ended up taking the GED twice. The first time I passed all parts except math and the second time I only had to take math in which I passed and exceeded the score I needed to pass. My son is now at the tender age of five and I feel as though I need to not just advise him to go to college, but as his mom set an example. He will be starting first grade in August and he is so smart. I am a full time single mom, I work full time and I am in school full time. I enjoy watching basketball, football and reading a good book. I am currently employed with the State of Florida Department of Health Central Office Children’s Medical Services. I have been an employee here for 6 and half years now and although I love what I do, I would like to further my education to one day become a teacher. I credential providers all over the state of Florida (ARNP’s/PA’s, SLP (all types), OT (all types), etc., I enjoy reading books, playing sports, spending time with my son, family and friends. My goal is to obtain my Associate of Arts degree with a concentration in Elementary Education and to one day become a great teacher. I love children and to see my son go through the different stages of learning and how teachers make a big impact on children lives they have inspired
