I got it from my mother. She was dedicated to improving lives, so I listened and learned.
My formal education includes a bit of everything -- from the lofty heights of philosophical psychology to the brass tacks of balancing a budget.
I hold a bachelor’s degree from the University of Chicago, a master’s degree from the Jane Addams College of Social Work at the University of Illinois, and a Certificate in Business Administration from DePaul University.
Along the way, I have delivered Meals on Wheels, helped children learn to read, and co-founded an avant-garde dance troupe.
