Her professional journey includes years of service at the RTA before retirement, as well as work as a cashier in a grocery store. She holds a high school diploma from John Adams High School, completed two years of college with a focus in business, and has pursued theological training. She serves as a Bishop within the Greater Cleveland Ohio Ministry Alliance and the Chicago Ministry Alliance, for which she has received recognition from the City of Cleveland and an award from the Chicago Alliance. Each day begins with prayer and a deliberate search for ways to serve her community, guided by a deep commitment to mental health awareness ministry.

She lives by the principle of treating every person with respect and honesty, believing that all are accountable for their actions.

Her greatest aspiration is to secure grant funding to expand her ability to provide meaningful support to the communities she serves.
