Nakiella Strickland

Nakiella is originally from the beautiful city of Montego Bay, Jamaica. She currently resides in Montgomery county with her teenage daughter. She loves listening to smooth jazz and dancehall music. She is an avid reader and her favorite color is blue. Nakiella loves to travel for fun but also to learn about various cultures, food and cross cultural communication. She has a huge heart for charity and finds every opportunity to give back her time and money to various causes and individuals.

She has worked in higher education for over 15 years: she has served as a Graduation Technician and Records and Registration Assistant at Montgomery College, Senior Academic Progress Advisor, Assistant Registrar and Adjunct Professor at Argosy University. By far, her most memorable moment working at any college/university is always graduation as she gets extremely positively overwhelmed to see students and their families accomplish such an amazing milestone.
