My calling is to help women be free.

My goal is to support system-dependent, economically impoverished women in the development and advancement of their situations away from poverty and into thriving lives as leaders in their own communities.

The skills and insights gained in my nearly 20 years of corporate accounting, leadership, business development, and entrepreneurial experiences culminate in the form of Community and Economic Development, with a focus on supporting organizations that specialize in policy reform and poverty alleviation strategies.

We are all born with wisdom - we simply lose access to it.

My life work has been about regaining access to mine and guiding others to chiseling away the walls of “gunk” that has hidden them from their true life calling.

I am here to serve.

Inside my life vehicle, I use my voice, gifts, and art to express and teach - as these are my calling.

Using mediums such as social impact entrepreneurship, written word, community development, deep self and spiritual-exploration and authorship as my "weapons of mass liberation" tool kit to educate and share with others.

#SoulLiberation and #Wholeness therefore is a way of life particularly to support the economic advancement for low-income women.

I'm a neo-hippie.

I'm a Washington, DC native, and southern girl at heart.

I used to fake being "normal" (you know - college graduate, corporate ladder, workaholic entrepreneur).

Only to carry the truth of who I am on my body through obesity and a stifled, unfulfilled, frustrated, life.

Not today...today, I'm Emancipated. Through a journey I call Soul Discovery. I've served as founder of brands and organizations that support under-served entrepreneurs.

I am the visionary architect for many small business owners.

I write bestselling books like "How She Got Free", and "Surviving Shocking Situations".

I speak internationally and co-found and co-host the only spiritual business retreat for women of color...ever.

My work and voice has been featured in major publications such as Black Enterprise, PBS, MyBrownBaby.com, and others.
