I have taught classes at the college level for the past 20 years (Social Psychology, Developmental Psychology, Basic Math, Basic English Grammar and Research Writing, Communications, Abnormal Psychology, General Psychology, Psychology of Personality, Psychology of Learning and Life Skills) and have been a substitute teacher for grades K-12. I worked as a mental health counselor working with children and adolescents for over 10 years  and I have been a Director of Education and Director of Compliance for Career Colleges over the years. 

My education at the Bachelor's level was in Psychology, the Master's level was Mental Health Counseling and my PhD work has been in both Clinical and Educational Psychology. I love to engage in interactive teaching and learning and I am a strong believer in the student centered approach to education.
