her Story

I discovered my love for literature at an early age. My love for humanity soon followed. Fusing my two loves, I write complex, heartfelt stories that embody the human experience.  

Before becoming a novelist,  I worked in the field of Human Services for many years, advocating for children, youth, and families.

I hold a Bachelor's degree in Business Administration from HBCU, Texas Southern University, and a Masters's Degree in Social Work from San Diego State University. I  reside in my native state of California with my family.  

​

To commemorate the 400 years since the first African captives arrived in the Americas, I founded the 1619 National Celebration of Black Women. My purpose-driven mission is recognizing the extraordinary contributions women of African descent have made in building America.
