I am passionate young professional known to most as Quady! I have  worked in many positions with young children. I  first was an art assistant at Ranney School Camp for five consecutive summers.  I interned with special needs pre-school children and with adults with mental illnesses while I was studying at Seton Hall University. I graduated with a Major in Social and Behavioral Sciences and a minor in Social Work. Recently I received my certification for Trauma and Resilience Practitioner.
