Tell me your story. What has made you the woman you are today?
“I have overcome a lot of obstacles to be where I am today. I was raised in a small town in Ohio by a single mom and 2 older sisters. My mom provided for us but wasn’t good at expressing love or any other feelings. I was the first to do a lot of things in my family including graduating from college, which meant I had to struggle through those years because it was outside of the norm in my family. I didn’t have financial support so I have always worked to pay my own way since I was 16 years old. I have walked through life trying to do better so I can support my immediate and extended family. All my struggles have made me the resilient, strong, independent woman I am today.”
