What do you attribute your success to?
I attribute my success to a combination of community involvement, personal passions, and strong foundational influences. Volunteering at local animal shelters and supporting the county food bank have taught me the value of giving back, while my love for reading, painting, styling hair, and staying active keeps me balanced and inspired. My faith and the example set by my late mother, Geraldine, who was a guiding role model in my life, have also played a pivotal role in shaping who I am today.
