I have a collegiate degree at a level Masters plus 30, in School Psychology and have worked in the field of mental health for over 20 years at various levels of exposure to direct care early in my career.

I am currently headed towards completing a doctoral degree from the Grand Canyon University.

I love words and have been called a human walking Encyclopedia but the truth is that somehow certain types of information seem to absorb quickly and easily into my already solidified neuronal structures and are easily accessible to me when trying to convey meaning and understanding. Years of leading meetings with parents, teachers, administrators, advocates, lawyers, and a multitude of other professionals sitting at the table have taught me to communicate effectively and clearly using language and words that convey purposeful information compacted within a small window of time and attention.

I am excited in geek terms likened to the "Big Bang Theory" characters to find a site with like minded individuals who are also fascinated by our language.
