Attending middle and high school in Texas when desegregation was implemented brought violence and fear into the schoolhouse. What is a kid to do? Just plain cope with it. Fortunately, I had parents that taught coping skills when I was a child. Unfortunately, the challenges in my life were greater than I could deal with all at one time, and after high school I sunk into deep depression and became dangerously suicidal.
Dying was not my greatest fear. Existing in eternal misery was, and I was not sure that death would free me. So, I decided to stay. With the hand of God on my shoulder I learned to conquer my fears. Along the way I also discovered strategies that minimize fear and other negative emotions and thinking patterns from my daily life. Soon, fear and negative thinking no longer entered into my mind.
I read the Holy Bible cover to cover, back to back in two years. I wanted to know what it said, so... I read it. Amazing how much one task such as that can change your understanding forever. I began to thirst for more knowledge so... off to college I went. I earned a Bachelor's Degree in Geography and minored in chemistry for fun. It was at this time in my life that I discovered I was a nerd. After college, I worked as an environmental engineer for five years, but the field was very unstable. I decided to enter the field of education.
Back to high school. The place I dreaded the most when I was a kid became my workplace. While working with some of the roughest kids in school, I earned my Teacher's Certificate, and later my Master's Degree in Education. Eight years of teaching brought me new knowledge of myself, others and the world around me. It also opened my eyes to the struggles that most teenagers face everyday; I had it easy.
Today, I bring what I have learned through the decades to help others.
My workshops and presentations are designed to excel personal growth by expanding your knowledge, and teaching you coping skills, so that you can conquer your challenges and find your own destiny.
