I raised three children as a single mother before I remarried. I have experienced the potholes, pests, and perils of being the single head of the household. As an educator in regular and special education for twenty years, I am the founder of Single Moms EmpowerEd, a nonprofit whose goal is to support single moms while they earn a degree that leads to employment. I’m also a Certified Professional Coach, and my stories have been published in several Christian books and magazines. My book, Living Learning Loving, is available on Barnes & Noble, Walmart, and Amazon.
