I embarked on a new journey in March, 2019, when I began my classes for my doctorate through the online program at  Liberty University. I am passionate about our students with autism and want to see their education improve in our schools. They deserve to learn with their peers and be included in the general education classrooms. These students will one day be part of their communities and should be provided the education that will help them be successful citizens. I decided to return to school to help make this happen.
