Meet Your Destiny

 Hi Everyone!

I'm Destiny, a twenty-something first-year 5th-grade ELA teacher at RISE Prep Mayoral Academy out in Woonsocket, RI. I'm originally from Gainesville, Florida, and spent my adolescent years in Houston, Texas, before migrating north for undergrad. I graduated from Brown University in Fall 2023 with a Bachelor of Arts in Sociology and Africana Studies. 

In my free time, I enjoy crocheting, reading, traveling, brunch/happy hour with friends, the beach, cozy gaming on my sunflower yellow Nintendo Switch, and watching various movies and TV shows. I have a huge passion for social justice and strive to make a positive difference in the world. I am excited to take this course and learn more about how I can become a more socially just educator.
