My name is Dr. Joy Harkins. I live in a small community in California where I coordinate The Community Center at a large public university. I recently completed my Ph.D. in Educational Leadership and Organizations. I am also a wife and a mom.
We are all busy and no one has time to spend hours reading long blogs. My hope is that you can read each post in a minute or two. Hopefully, it will encourage or inspire you, and you can move on with your day! Thanks for sharing a minute with me! Feel free to contact me on the Contact page.
