From a young, anxious Mississippi girl to a truth speaking woman.
In 2012, I decided to grab the mic to say a brief speech at my high school graduation party thanking my family for supporting me. My aunt came up to me and said that was the most she’d ever heard me speak. Fast-forward a few years, I’m thankful for growth and finding power in using my voice. I am always happy to share my story and advocate for our communites. The below visuals showcase some of the journey.
If you’re interested in having me as a speaker, vendor, or attendee — let’s connect and make it happen! Although I truly enjoy volunteering in the community, in this economy, love offerings and sponsorships are greatly appreciated to help support my advocacy work.
