About the Author

Passionate about imparting personal experiences and knowledge to
enrich learning processes and create a positive environment for
professional growth, Dr. Natasha Wilson founded High School to
Infinity in August 2019 by combining her dedication to improve
student performance, promote educational diversity and equity, and
bridge any educational gaps between students. Determined to make
her students excel in all their future endeavors, Dr. Wilson has kept a
keen focus on adding value to her students' knowledge. To further
aid in this, she has utilized pedagogical approaches to deliver
thought-provoking and engrossing lectures that have effectively
increased student interest and performance levels.
Natasha's time as a Ph.D. researcher offered her the platform to interrelate her passion for
research with her experience of teaching young adults. For her Ph.D. dissertation, Natasha
contributed to the field of business technology by focusing on digital communication
methods for managers and on employee relationship development. This study aimed to
explore the experiences of managers born from 1946 to 1964 while keeping in mind the
digital communication channels in daily work practices by conducting qualitative research.
In addition to being a highly reputable instructor, Dr. Wilson has also utilized her business
and technical writing skills to become a published author. Enthusiastic about personal
growth, Natasha earned her MBA and bachelor's in Business from Strayer University,
Arlington, VA, and developed excellent critical thinking, project management, and
analytical skills. Having worked as a Senior Project Manager and having owned her
enterprise in the past, Natasha has acquired much expertise in working in a fast-paced
and a highly collaborative environment with utmost attention to detail and compliance with
required standards to exceed all set objectives consistently.
Born and raised in Chesapeake, Virginia, with ten siblings, Natasha currently resides in
Florence, South Carolina; she has a son, daughter, and stepdaughter.
Recognized for her commitment and determination to help people, Natasha has played an
instrumental role in constructing a safe space for young people through a youth program,
where they can experience the love of God on a deeper level and establish nurturing
relationships. Natasha has designed similar programs in coordination with the Youth
Planning Team and other relevant leaders.
