Three years ago, I met a second year student from North High School at a Sister-to-Sister Conference. I was listening to a group of girls describe issues that they were struggling with. Afterwards, a 15 year old girl approached me to state that she was having a difficult time in her math class and was concerned about passing the mathematics portion of the MCAS that following spring. It was a serendipitous moment. I saw a spark in this young woman and knew she would be successful. We met weekly for 7 months, and she not only passed the MCAS, but got As and Bs in her math class.

I work with some of the coolest girls on Earth to help them learn all about science, math, engineering, and technology as well as gain important leadership skills. I also love to volunteer on organic farms and smile at strangers.

I love to pass on my the things I have learned in my life to my family and anyone willing to listen.

Of all the actions, seeing, hearing and speaking, the one that I control is what I say. The others I refuse to participate with. I have always loved locs, the hairstyle, and the positive energy of those that wear them. I currently do volunteer work with Art in the Park, Worcester, support Democracy, activate for a community where the institutions and the cultural life reflect that of its inhabitants.

Too many times when I'm driving around, there's someone on a corner in need, holding up a a sign about being homeless, or in dire circumstances. Rarely do I have cash or change, but usually have snacks. I offer something to eat or drink that hasn't been opened. On the few ocassions that I haven't had anything suitable to offer, I have at least opened the window to say hello instead of ignoring them. And I make sure my kids understand the importance of acknowledging those that might need our help.
