- Inspired by the many teachers who mentored and encouraged me during my own school years, I became an educator and enjoyed a rewarding fifty-year career, teaching upper elementary school students as well as preparing future teachers in my role as a college professor.

Even though I was a poor kid from the projects, they sent me the message that I could do anything I put my mind to. And so, I did.
