A quote from Chris Choice, "I have a better understanding of how to push myself to adapt to something unfamiliar".

Chris states it was nothing but luck that led him to Georgetown University 12 years ago. Gratitude is what keeps him going. He’s a dedicated father and shares the parenting of two young daughters – all while handling two jobs.

Chris Choice was an exceptional ambassador for our Redeploy Program and we’re grateful he was proud to serve his community during these hard times.

A quote from Vikki Taplin, "This opportunity rescued and restored my spirits and gave me hope for what's ahead".

Emigrated from England to the United States twenty years ago, Vikki provided live-in child care as a Special Needs Teacher for twelve years. She began to look for other avenues to expand her experience in early education. It is Georgetown’s luck that her interview with Jane Banister, Hoya Kids Director, resulted in her employment as a Hoya Kids Teacher.

8 years later, she can’t imagine other work that would inspire and fulfill her as much as early childhood development.
