Hi! I’m Imani! I’m an Academic Coach with Staying Ahead of the Game LLC. I am a proud graduate of the University of Houston (Go Coogs!) with a bachelor’s degree in psychology and a minor in Women, Gender, and Sexuality Studies. I’ve been mentoring and tutoring since high school, supporting marching band students, helping them stay organized, and ensuring they met both academic and performance goals. In college, I mentored 5th graders through the University of Houston’s Honors College, helping them raise their science and math STAAR test scores and prepare for junior high. I chose to coach with SAOTG because I’m passionate about using my psychology background to support neurodivergent students in reaching their full potential, the kind of guidance I wish I’d had growing up.
