For more than a decade, I have combined the passion for understanding the multicultural facets of the world with the will of becoming a proactive international educator. I use my International Education expertise to support diversity and equity in Higher Education as  I believe that individuals shall discover their own path to academic success regardless of cultural and racial background. 

   I received my  BA in International Studies from City College of New York, and an MA in International Education from NYU. Currently, I am a doctoral candidate in the program of Higher Education Leadership, Management, and Policy at Seton Hall University. My research focuses on how institutions use campus resources to integrate international and intercultural dimensions into the teaching and learning processes so that internationalization becomes a benefit for the entire academic community. 

    As an Independent International Education Consultant, I edit college application materials, advise students to find the right college fit, and provide ESL and essay writing tutoring.  I also give support to individuals with traveling and adjustment into mainstream societies through collegiate journies in foreign countries. 

     I am committed to research and guidance for students to fully understand how to use intellectual resources to achieve international and intercultural competencies and prevail in today’s interconnected world.
