A little about me.

I was born and raised in South Africa, I studied Mechanical Engineering and Design. I came to the United States in 1999 to work for Ford Motor Company as a CAD Designer. After my work visa ended, I decided to stay here and further my education. Due to the circumstance outlined in "My Story", I went back to school and changed my course of study. I earned four associate degrees, one of them being a Mental Health/Social Work degree. Then I obtained a bachelor’s in psychology, followed by a master’s in counseling and thereafter another master’s in education, specializing in Higher Education Student Affairs. I am passionate about helping students, by providing them with the guidance and direction they may need, to help aid in their growth and development. I also use my personal story to help inspire as many people as I can. Despite my daily struggles with chronic illness, I have not given up. Even though I am currently not employed, I try my best to help as many students as I can, and only if my health allows.
