Who are your personal sheroes, women you look up to?
My personal shero is my mother. For over 20 years, I watched her catch the bus to work—rain, sleet, or heat—while caring for her family, pushing through health scares and emergencies, and still showing up every day with this unwavering compassion for everyone she meets. Her strength, gentleness, and grace continue to inspire me ’til this very day.

What do you like to do in your free time?
I love the outdoors. I love to go to festivals, find a nice park and sip my wine, or go out on the water with my family on our pontoon boat and enjoy the nice views.
What book, podcast, artist, or playlist are you currently into?
I’ve always loved 90’s neo soul and the comfort it gives me. My go-to artists are Erykah Badu, Lauryn Hill, D’Angelo, Maxwell, and Jill Scott.
