I love meeting people. Every new person we meet is an opportunity to learn something new about the world and share ideas. I also love gaining and sharing knowledge. One of my favorite things to hear from someone during a conversation is, "I never thought about it that way before."

I come from a family of teachers and travelers. My father is a professor at Tennessee State University, my mother teaches elementary school children in Florida, and my sister teaches business in France. Teaching and embracing diversity is in my blood.

Mentoring and tutoring have always been a part of my life. It's a special feeling to help someone become the person they want to be. As a self-taught creative professional, there are so many things I wish someone had taught me early in my career. I aim to be that helping hand for individuals who may otherwise not have the opportunity.

Ultimately, we are all in this experience of life together.
