Mentor Me & Contribute to the Reciprocity Ring



This summer I'm participating in a virtual Reciprocity Ring started by Amma Marfo, an amazing higher education professional who has a big heart and is super talented. It's wonderful to be part of a group that is women helping other women. Be sure to check out the Reciprocity Ring every week for the latest post and see how you can help someone get closer to their goals. My Reciprocity Ring post is below.
My name is Winnifred but most people call me Winni or Diva. I was born in Port-au-Prince, Haiti and grew up in southern CT where I currently live. I have a B.A. in English with a double minor in History and Women’s Studies. I have an M.S.Ed. in Counselor Education which I’ve used in the non-profit sector as an addictions/career counselor as well as working in group homes for those with developmental disabilities and/or mental health issues.
