Most Inspiring Person: My Mom has always been an inspiration to me even since her death. There are very few days that go by that I don’t quote her at least once.
Proudest Moment: One of my proudest moments was finally earning my Ph.D. after working on it part-time for about 10 years as a single mother with many obstacles along the way.
What Keeps Me Up at Night: As the mother, grandmother, sister, aunt, cousin, etc., of African American males, I’m concerned about their safety within this racially charged society. It’s also what motivates me to do the work that I do to try to make our community better for them.
Hobby/Passion: I have lots of things that I love doing, most of which usually center around hanging out with family and friends. I love traveling, playing golf, walking and going to the theater.
