My family immigrated from Brazil when I was a teenager. I served in the army and immediately afterward married the man of my dreams. Together we have a son and we both work at Israel College of the Bible in Netanya. I have a passion for administration, but I knew there was much I needed to learn to improve the level of my abilities. I found an online program where I could study from home at my own pace. The challenge was our young son. As a toddler, this was an important time for me to be involved in his life. However, in order to pay for this program, I would have to get an additional job. I’m so thankful to ISWI for covering the cost of the course so I can learn to be excellent at work and still be excellent at home with my family.
