关于我们
CollegeBound works exclusively in Baltimore City public schools to enable students to pursue a postsecondary education. A secondary goal is to improve the social and economic fabric of the community through an educated workforce. Since 1988, CollegeBound’s nationally recognized college advising model has transformed the lives of tens of thousands of high school students. Alumni credit their College Access Program Specialists and the highly individualized college advising program with their success. Originally a part-time, pre-college effort in fewer than five schools, CollegeBound now employs and trains seventeen full-time college advisors who work year-round on-site in 21 Baltimore City public high schools. CollegeBound maintains an annual scholarship and grant portfolio valued at $3 million and awards over $200,000 annually through the need-based Last Dollar Grant Program for Baltimore City public school graduates. CollegeBound currently supports over 600 Baltimore City public school graduates pursuing a college degree through scholarships, grants, and the College Completion Program, an intensive support model that follows students every step of the way to a college degree.

Dir of Strategic Partnerships | Author | Workshop Leader | School & Community Event Planner | PCACAC President (2024- 25)
I’m truly honored to be featured among the incredible professionals in “Who’s Who in Black Baltimore!” Being recognized for the work I do—helping students realize their postsecondary and career aspirations—is both humbling and affirming. God has always provided everything I’ve needed and most things I’ve wanted. I’ve built my career on fairness, integrity, and a deep commitment to the communities I serve, and I will continue doing the good work. I’m far from perfect, but I am proud of the journey and impact. Thank you to everyone who supports and believes in me. This recognition is a reminder that purpose and passion will always make room for you! #wwibbaltimore

How do you learn how to “pitch” yourself to find your next great opportunity? Yesterday, as part of the Career Accelerator Lab, students at Patterson High School wrote “Elevator Pitches” and pitched them to each other because practice makes perfect. They look forward to using their pitches during our upcoming field trips to the BCPS Forensics Lab, UMD Medical School and BWI Airport. Great work, ladies!
