I have been with Bryant and Stratton since 2016, and thoroughly enjoy helping students on their journey to pursue their educational and career goals. I earned my Bachelor of Science Degree in Mathematics with New York State Certification Grades 7 – 12 and as well as my Master of Science Degree in Adult Education at Buffalo State College. I also have gained my Associate’s Degree in Liberal Arts and Social Science, prior to pursuing my career in Mathematics Education, at Erie Community College. I find that education does not stop with school; every day I learn from co-workers, friends, and my students. The value of sharing experiences and backgrounds is essential in creating lifelong learners which is a primary aspiration I have for my students. My values in education revolve around the impact made upon you, as a student, through the relationships developed within the learning environment. After having me as an instructor, I hope that you will not only have deepened your knowledge on the content, but also found value in the learning experience itself.

Work-Life Balance: Create a sustainable balance between my professional responsibilities and personal life by setting boundaries and prioritizing time with family and friends.
Lifelong Learning: Read at least one professional or personal development book each month to continue growing my knowledge and perspective.
The purpose of this project is to apply my knowledge of financial literacy to a real-life scenario involving investments, specifically how to secure a bank loan for a house. Throughout this project I expect to become more knowledgeable about what goes into purchasing a home after all, mortgages are among the toughest lines of capital to obtain. I will research and use information from my budget (income, expenses, and savings) to calculate ratios and proportions to analyze my financial situation and determine if I have the means to apply for my mortgage today or at some point in the future.
