My educational background includes an Ed.D in Instructional Technology in Distance Education from Nova Southeastern University, a M.E. in Teaching English to Speakers of Other Languages, from Regent University, a M.A. in International Commerce and Policy from George Mason University, and a B.S. in Home Economics, concentrating on Fashion Merchandising, as well as a UX/UI CareerTrack bootcamp through Springboard Education.
Besides design and research, I enjoy travel, cooking, training my border collie dogs, and am an avid learner of the circus art of aerial silks.
