Sahkia has a Masters degree in Higher Education Administration from SUNY-Stony Brook University and Bachelors degree in Psychology from St. John's University in New York.

Sahkia enjoys working with students very much. She has a positive attitude and a passion to assist and motivate students to succeed academically and personally. She believes that every student is different in their own ways and that people learn things differently and at different paces; when students struggle with a subject, it's usually because their learning style conflicts with the style or pace with which it is being taught. Tutoring one on one gives the opportunity to learn at the student's optimal pace.

In her free time, Sahkia enjoys traveling, playing tennis, swimming and playing guitar. She loves animals and has a little kitty of her own.
