Sept. 12, 2014 – Sept. 12, 2015

Sept. 12, 2015
This year has been the most fantastic journey of my life.  I now know that I was not made to do anything different than Adorn the already beautiful lives of people.  Adorn really comes from my initial vision for the business, Math Tutoring.  I never intended to be a teacher, but I wanted to add to the lessons already given.  During my initial evaluation as a tutor, I have students bring their books, notes, exams, and homework.  From these, I am able to get a better understanding of what their teacher has already taught them and how I can Adorn that instruction.  This way, the student understands their current material, and I teach them concepts that will allow them to excel in the classroom.

My favorite moment caught on camera! My Aerospace/Mechanical track students are announced winners of the Hack.IT Bahamas Design Project Competition, and are presented a check for $1,000 by STEMBoard Co-founder and CEO, Ms. Aisha Bowe. Please Check out their website at www.bahamabuoys.com

The biggest lesson:  Follow God
Usually, when I introduce my company as “Adorn The World”, I would get the yeah… okay… World? look.  Even before I knew how it would happen, I declared that I would impact the world.  Through following God’s instructions to tap into the miracles that he has already placed into my life, Adorn The World was sponsored to teach and mentor at an engineering summer camp in The Bahamas!  Some of the first year’s major accomplishments are:

• Hack.IT Bahamas Aerospace and Mechanical Engineering Track Lead for 50 high school students with STEMBoard
• The Keynote speaker at Harriet Tubman Village Charter School 8th grade graduation
• Speaking to 50 girls ages 10-13 and their moms about being a woman engineer, and leading a hands-on activity with Girls, Inc. of San Diego

  • Tutoring at Hancock Elementary School
  • Volunteering at San Diego Children’s Discovery Museum and The New Children’s Museum
  • Ask a Solar Engineer – Discussion for non-engineers
  • National Engineers Week – San Diego Awards Banquet
• MATHCOUNTS Competition Volunteer Evaluator
• Interview and commercial spotlight for Painting and Vino
• Instructor’s Assistant for In Him We Move – Liturgical Dance Conference and Concert

One year Later — Renewing the Adorn the World Paperwork and starting Psalm 150 Orchestra! So much growth and development.

I am most excited to announce that days before renewing my first company, Adorn The World, I began my my second company!! Psalm 150 Orchestra was established September 9, 2015!  I am really excited about this vision that God has given me to take Adorn Artistry to another level.
