She grew up in public housing, lost her father as a young child, and watched her mother raise three daughters with strength and determination. She became a mother at 16 and left school in the 11th grade, but with faith, family, and the people God placed in her path, she went back, earned college degrees, and built a childcare program that now serves children and families in her community.
