My Life’s Story

My Core Values

My core values center around intentionality, growth, and
community. I believe that every action, decision, and
relationship should be driven by purpose, shaping both
personal and professional growth. I am also committed to
fostering environments where continuous learning,
embracing challenges, and celebrating progress unlocks true
potential. My dedication to community stems from the belief
that collective strength and collaboration can address
societal challenges, creating opportunities for all to thrive.

My journey began in Fayetteville, NC, where I quickly realized
the power of community and the importance of showing up
for others. As a former city councilwoman, I saw firsthand
the challenges faced by her community and was driven to
advocate for those who often go unheard. My path has since
evolved, where I now focuses on inspiring others to live
intentionally, take control of their lives, and make meaningful
change in their communities. I believes that when individuals
embrace their purpose, they not only transform themselves
but the world around them.
