Quotes I have dedicated a significant part of my life to various fields, including the arts, teaching, social service, directing films, and theater production. While I am recognized for my contributions to the arts, I take pride in my impact on youth, emphasizing social and emotional learning. Beyond my creative endeavors, I’ve made significant changes within the systems I’ve worked in, such as pioneering the idea of daycare for Administration for Children Services in the 1980s and initiating the first job readiness program and job fair in the NYCHA system. Fundraising efforts at The Learning Tree What sets me apart is the commitment to collaborate with emerging talents fostering their development.
