WHAT IS YOUR MOTTO?

It gets greater later.

People who are unwilling to do the work to get what they want.

WHAT DO YOU WEAR THAT MAKES YOU FEEL STRONG?

A colorful six inch heel with a flirty skirt, turns me into a superhero.

A cocktail with my closest friends.

HOW DO YOU DEFINE SUCCESS?

Having the freedom to do what you love and being well compensated for it.

WHAT 3 THINGS WOULD YOU GRAB IN A FIRE?

My phone, my birth certificate and photos of my family.

FAVORITE WORD?

Blessed — it’s over used now, especially on social media. However, I know that I’ve been blessed time and again, in circumstances little to large. Many people might call that luck, but I know it’s a blessing from a higher power.

FAVORITE WORK OF ART?

Jacob Lawrence’s The Migration Series.  My parents were a part of the Great Migration, they left Jim Crow South to make a better life for themselves and their families.  I’m proud to say that they succeeded, they provided a wonderful life for me and my siblings.

FAVORITE BOOK?

The Four Agreements — it steadies me, reminds me of just how powerful we can all be if we learn how to harness our gifts.
