(BALTIMORE – November 2, 2025) – At 60 years old, I’ve reached another milestone. In May, I completed my Master’s in Journalism at Morgan State University. Today, I’m pursuing doctoral studies in Management and Organization at the University of Maryland’s Smith School of Business.

(BALTIMORE – October 29, 2025) – There are roughly 150,000 children in Maryland living in poverty. For too long, concentrated childhood poverty has existed in neighborhoods across the state — denying many children the ability to reach their full potential. But every child deserves more than just a chance to survive; they deserve the opportunity to thrive.
