“Researching different schools for a quick job change, RCC was the only place that was affordable, convenient and within proximity. My instructors were amazing teachers who not only taught me what I needed to know, but also helped me get a job on the last day of my internship.”

“My quest for knowledge and skill coupled with a strong desire to positively impact the world led me to RCC: a college where hopes and dreams become reality. The faculty, staff, and my fellow students made RCC the best place for me. I see RCC not just as a college, but a citadel where leaders are made.”

“I tell my students, many people think being a salesperson is convincing someone to buy a product. The truth of the matter is that being an effective salesperson involves listening to what people’s needs are, and expressing what your value proposition is in regards to those needs. That’s what I’m doing with my students. I listen to understand what their problems are, understand what’s in the way of their learning, then help them find a way to meet their needs.”

“One of the reasons why I love being a teacher is because I can help children become more than what society and their environment may predict them to be. I want to help young children understand that they can achieve everything they desire, and their environment doesn’t have to determine their future. Though my mother did not live to see me graduate from RCC, and further my education, I still carry every valuable life lesson she has taught me and has made them a foundation to build upon my successes.”
