"I graduated from Kean University with a Bachelor's Degree in Elementary Education and a minor in Psychology. During that time, I was a Teaching Assistant in a Special Education Kindergarten class for 7 years. I went on to pursue my Master's Degree in Reading and Writing from Manhattanville College.
