Add to My Profile | More VideosI have been blessed to have followed the ways of the wise. I was told that if you cannot rely on your education to earn a living develop a trade. If your trade falls short find something you are talented in.I earned a degree in Early Childhood Education from Clark Atlanta University. From time to time I teach elementary school. Shortly after graduating from CAU I was called to Midwifey and have been "catching" babies for twenty eight years. I put my teaching skills to use by teaching parents about pregnancy & childbirth. Thus my profession and trade. Somehow, the Creator saw it fitting that I become a co-founder to Giwayen Mata, an award winning, dynamic, soul stirring, all-sistah, dance, percussion, vocal and African Dance Ensemble. This is where I found and developed my talent. Below and within "my space" you will experience my life as family, childbirth, midwifery, entertainment & edutainment. Enjoy this video clip of Giwayen Mata.If you are interested in seeing more of us, check us out at: www.myspace.com/giwayenmata and www.giwayenmata.comGiwayen-Mata:Celebrating African Performing Arts - Part 1
