Dynamic Strategist: Leading with Passion & Purpose
​I've spent over 15 years inside higher education finance — not as a spectator, but as the person responsible for the portfolio, the audit, the board relationship, and the compliance framework that holds institutions together.
​
As Finance & Operations Specialist at Suffolk County Community College Foundation, I oversee a multimillion-dollar investment portfolio and serve as the primary liaison to the Board of Directors. As an Adjunct Assistant Professor in Business Administration, I bring the same rigor to the classroom. And as a Peer Evaluator for the Middle States Commission on Higher Education, I've assessed institutional quality from the inside — a perspective that sharpens everything I do.
​
My work extends beyond the institution. I'm the founder of Your Opening Statement — a personal styling practice for professional women who want their appearance to speak before they do. And I'm the author of a biblical financial literacy workbook designed to help individuals transform their relationship with money through scripture and practice.
​
I hold an EdD in Community College Leadership from Morgan State University and an MBA in Management from Hofstra University. I'm rooted in Queens, New York — and guided by purpose in everything I build.
