I'm building my own legacy. I can no longer wait for someone to open the door of opportunity for me--I am creating it. Growing up in Oakland, CA, I was able to see dreams deferred and visions manifested and ultimately had a choice to make.
In 2003, I moved to Los Angeles and attended Cal State Los Angeles where I earned my B.A. in Communications with an emphasis in Public Relations. I worked for TV One, BET, KPFK and Shannon Barr Public Relations before transitioning my career to education.
In 2008 I pursued my M.A. in Education and began teaching high school English. Once in the entertainment industry, always in the industry. I maintained relationships with several people in my network and often leveraged them in the educational realm.
In 2013, I began hosting a podcast addressing love and relationships in the African-American community. Currently, I am co-hosting “Dance Hustle Radio” on the Good News Network and Spotify.
In 2019, after several years living in Los Angeles, I moved back to the Bay Area. My greatest accomplishment is my beautiful daughter with whom I co-authored Potty-Training Day.I self-published Beyond the Hurt under my publishing company Revision Publishing LLC in 2016. Revision Publishing LLC is an indie publishing and consulting firm supporting new authors on their self-publishing journey.
