    “This is my 7th year at Lincoln Park Performing Arts Charter School as Director of Pre-Law and the Arts, a department for which I created and developed the curriculum. The master’s program at SVC prepared me for the momentous task of creating and implementing an entire curriculum. SVC helped give me the confidence to take advanced subject matter and make it accessible to and exciting for high school students. I often spend four years with my students, during which I observe them grow in confidence and ability.”
