“Love life. Engage in it. Give it all you’ve got. Love it with a passion because life truly does give back, many times over, what you put into it” – Maya Angelou

On a Personal Note:
I originate from North Carolina, and my life’s journey has brought me to Tennessee due to my military affiliation. I am both an army veteran and the spouse of an active-duty soldier, experiences that have deeply shaped my path. Beyond the realm of work, my heart finds solace in cherishing moments with my family. During the pockets of time I have, I find joy in weaving tales for children’s books. My ambition centers on creating literary pieces that resonate with young hearts, instilling a sense of empowerment while imparting crucial skills in self-advocacy. My sincere goal is to continue crafting stories that not only captivate young imaginations but also nurture their personal growth and development.
