See profile on LinkedIn for more info - - After NEHS, I earned my Bach. of Architectural Engineering from Penn State, during which I studied in Rome, Italy. I interned for almost a year in Baltimore, and after graduating in 2000, moved out to Los Angeles to manage and engineer construction projects. I also performed energy management studies & audits for the City of L.A. and large corporations like Sony Pictures Studios.

We currently live in Washington, DC and bought and renovated our home in 2009, while we were both working to help change the education system in the District. An has worked as teacher, a Master Educator for DCPS, a professor, and on her doctoral dissertation.
However, in January 2013, we began our biggest challenge in life, when our son, Alexander, was born. As most parents can say, we were hooked. Alex has been a blessing to us both, and continues to amaze us each and every day (he was reading whole books like "The Cat in the Hat" at 24 months) as we celebrate his 3rd birthday.
