Welcome! This is a new adventure for me, and I'm looking forward to the journey with you! I'm Dr. Tina Junior, and I want to help you cross the dissertation finish line! A little about me: - Originally from the Tri-State area (born in NY; moved to NJ when I was 9) - A proud HBCU Graduate (University of Maryland Eastern Shore, Class of 2010) - Business Education Major - MSA in Organizational Management (HRM Concentration) from Trinity Washington University - 2012 - EdD in Organizational Leadership (Organizational Development Concentration) from Grand Canyon University - 2023 I completed my EdD online while working full time, being a Wife, Mom, Daughter, Soror, Sister, & Friend. I know how hard and lonely it can be. I know the things that worked well for me (and others) and pitfalls to avoid. I want to hear them tell you, "Congratulations Doctor". Let me help you get there.
