Describe your job story:
I started working at 12 by babysitting and doing
hair . I made flyers and eventually turned my mom's garage into a salon. These
two trades funded my extracurricular activities, such as cheer leading. By 18,
these two ventures had amassed about $50,000. If only I had a money coach back
then, I would probably be a millionaire two times over. After Spelman, I worked
for Kaplan and then transitioned back to entrepreneurship. I then taught for a
few years hoping to sew global business into the minds of such amazing teens. I
transitioned from this field to entrepreneurship again when health challenges
impacted my mom, dad and grandmother all in a 12 month period. I became
even more dedicated to my mission and to helping other build a legacy. Now, I
am in the process of opening 10 offices across the United States and in Puerto
Rico. It's exhilarating and I know my future kids and generations
thereafter will be iin a great situation
What did you
want to be when you were a child/ teenager?
Since the younger portion of my years was in Valdosta, GA, I attended primary school with people from all over the world. Moody Air force Base was just 10 minutes from my home. So when I started my first business at 12, doing childcare, I would proclaim, " I want to be an international business woman." That goal had superseded the other goal of being a pediatrician.

Are doing your dream job?
Yes, I am building my dream
empire.
What do you like MOST about
what you do? What do you like the LEAST?
The least favorite part of
owning my very own firm is moreso with the procrastination of clients. We see
peoples lives change in a millisecond everyday so when people
forfeit now and replace it with later, it can be quite catastrophic.
Where do you see yourself in the next 5 years?
Firms in 10 different states
including Puerto Rico. A global mogul that has partnered with other
professionals to genuinely elevate, educate and empower over 1,000,000
individuals and families.
Are you happy with where you are in life?
Yes, I am happy, but I am not
content. Content is the adversary to growth and the best friend to mediocrity.
Having the ability to awake each day and doing God's will is the
source of my unwavering happiness.
What more do you want to do
with your life?
Well, that would be a novel
as I have laid out the next 30 years of my life....but at the end I want my
future grand kids to say....because of Grandma or GiGi....we can. The
world is our oyster. It's all about preparing the path for the kids I've
yet to bear and their kids. It's all about the legacy.
What drives/motivates you?
The sacrifices and lives
before me, the present ones I see that are older and younger than me....the
ability to look at the transitions of generation,,,so the fights can not be in
vain and so the future generations success doesn't hinge upon getting funding
for their dreams, but having it readily accessible where they don't have to ask
anyone for a job but are the creators of jobs.
What else do you do?
I speak at schools and
colleges. I travel. I garden. I dance salsa. I organize events, like the
Educators' Wealth Summit on June 4th.
What is your advice to those
who are seeking employment and have no hope?
Create your own business;
employ yourself and write off the process.
