Growing up in a small town, Selma, AL, taught me how to navigate many situations with my values, goals, and dreams in mind. I always felt that there was a possibility for something greater. I decided to go to college and graduated from Alabama A&M University with a degree in Computer Science. With my determination to find a job, I decided to take a big leap of faith and move to the Washington, DC area.
​
Even with the fear of starting in DC, it has been one of the best decisions I’ve made in my life. Here I am, a southern girl in a big city in the National’s Capitol working as a Systems Engineer walking by faith. I found ways to connect with people and navigate my new career.

There’s always been a hunger within me to discover more purpose. Through my passion for technology, I also started to understand that I had a passion for developing leaders. I made bold decisions to understand what would help me to invest in others and use my gifts in different spaces such as non-profit and corporate. I’ve been able to invest in over thousands of leaders.
There came a point where I had to slow down after having a major surgery. It required me to focus more on my wellness and reevaluate my goals for the future.I started to invest in myself personally - sn: the flight attendants always say to put your mask on first before helping anyone else put theirs on! I remember not knowing what it meant to rest or relax. I felt liberated and purposeful with my new journey. I learned how to take better care of myself and still reach my goals. I became a valued confidant for my clients, family, and friends.
I get to do what I love - leading conversations around diversity and inclusion, leadership, and team building strategies and spirituality. I feel the happiest when I’m contributing in a positive way to society and helping others to achieve their goals and master their lives.
