​EDUCATOR 
CLASSICAL SINGER

​Jennitha Arinze

​
​The most interesting thing about my job is that I not only get to lead students into the discovery of new things that we find in English literature, that involves traveling to different places, exploring new cultures, and learning about new topics, I get to share first hand experiences about how I sang in the middle of those cultures and in their different languages.
I am Mrs. Jennitha Arinze. My name means “Thank God I am full of pure beauty”. l am a 4th grade teacher, singer, writer, and executive coach to non-native English speaking professionals. I went to a conservatory for music which is a specialized and highly competitive college for artists which is also where I learned to sing in 5 languages. I have a Master’s degree in Teaching and I am currently in a doctoral program to get my Ph.D in Cognition and Instruction which means I want to learn everything about the brain and how we think so that I can inspire people to be great. I have been singing opera since I was 16 and have done so on 5 continents. My favorite countries to sing in was when I performed in Colombia, South American and in Nigeria, Africa. I love traveling to different countries as a guest artist and instructor. I am a volunteer at a local food bank and I grow my own vegetables as a hobby. The quote that I live by is, “It matters not how strait the gate, how charged with punishment the scroll. I am the master of my fate. I am the captain of my soul.” -William Ernst Henley ​

ARCHITECT
​Candace Watts

My favorite part of my job is that the spaces that I create with my pencil, pen and computer are built and people use them.

Did You Know...
​Architecture and Civil Engineering are similar fields but they have distinct roles.

The field of Architecture is primarily concerned with the aesthetics of a structure - focuses on the look, feel and functionality of the structure. A civil engineer analyses the design of the building to make sure that it is structurally sound and ensure that your dream building remains rock solid for years to come.
