I’m Njiba Tirado

Everyone has a story and with my story, I often have to ask people, do you want the book or the cliff note version? In case you said the book, Wounded to Win: Finding Purpose in Pain is exactly it. But if you said cliff notes, than here you go. My name is Njiba Tirado and I was born in Ivory Coast, a country located in West Africa. However, I am from the Democratic Republic of Congo. At the age of 12, I came to the United States in Newport News, Virginia. I am a graduate of Christopher Newport University with a Bachelor in Biology and a Masters in Teaching. I also hold an Educational Specialist degree from Regent University. My husband, Dr. Tito Tirado and I get to be parents of 4; an adult daughter, a teenage son, and two toddler boys. In high school, I remember winning the superlative, “Most likely to be helpful” and quickly realized I am Solution Minded. Being a problem solver gives me the ability to bridge the gap in others lives in multifaceted ways and I am excited to serve you!
