Get to Know Raven

  • What do you enjoy about helping students achieve their career goals?

    Being able to help even one student achieve their career goals give me a sense of accomplishment. I wish someone talked to me more about the different aspects of the education profession when I was in school .

  • What inspired you to enter a career in education?

    I have been apart of a Theocratic school since I was 4 years old. At this school we met weekly and were taught how to be effective and skilled teachers.

    My son also inspired me to enter a career in education. At the time I was in the Radio/Television industry I noticed my son struggling at school. He came home one day and just fell to the ground and said “help me.” I wanted to know and understand everything the teachers and administrators were saying to me. I didn’t understand certain acronyms and lingo, so I did research and realized I've been teaching all a long just not in the classroom.

  • Who was your most memorable teacher or what was your most impactful educational experience and why?

    I will never forget my oral communications teacher in high school, Mrs. Houston. She was my mother’s English teacher when she was in high school. Mrs. Houston had kept an incomplete short story that my mother had written and told me I had what it took to complete it. I did and was able to submit it for a contest. The short story was published, and I am a co-authored with my mother.

  • What do you like to do when you’re not working?

    Traveling and shopping are my go to things to do when I am not working. I work hard so I get to enjoy the fruits of my labor.
