I was born in Gainesville, FL and raised in Ocala, Florida. I also lived in Tampa Florida for two years. I have an extensive background in community involvement, 7 years in child welfare, 7 years as a Parent Educator and over 20 years working with families in the church/ministerial and community outreach setting as well as a background in life coaching. My educational background is very diverse and includes an AA in Advertising from the College of Central Florida, a BA in Religious Studies from the University of South Florida, MA in Human Resources Development from Webster University, and doctoral work in Psychology. My passion is helping people succeed in different areas of life. I truly have a heart for the well-being of humanity. I enjoy motivational speaking, writing, and self-publishing inspirational books. I am excited to join the United Way of Marion County as a Strong Families Success Coach. I look forward to being a part of a team that works to create a thriving community where adults and children can achieve their full potential.
