An Associate of Arts from Lakeland Community College and a Bachelor of Arts from Lake Erie College where she graduated Magna Cum Laude, was Vice President of Alpha Psi Omega and assistant taught a couple of theatre courses.

I can’t wait to get started and I know I’m going to help add value to an already amazing group of people.
