Her Story

About Natasha

I've literally been working with the public for quite some time now, over 10 years. I started out as a model and brand ambassador, then moved into recruiting models for Barbizon USA. They promoted me to their corporate office here in Tampa, Florida, where I started initiatives to gather women and empower them through holistic therapy sessions and empowerment courses, which is still ongoing work that I'm passionate about. Currently, I've been working in the rental car business with Hertz for over a year as a manager trainee at the Marriott downtown Tampa. I'm in their tuition program, so they help pay my tuition through college while I obtain my bachelor's degree in project management at Strayer University online. This degree will help me further my career in developing my own projects related to holistic healing. I previously obtained my associate's degree in 2009 for medical billing and coding, and I've worked with companies like Aetna doing prior authorization and MobileX USA in Clearwater, where I was billing and coding for equipment for bedridden patients. I'm also the founder of the Self-Expunged Sisterhood, an organization focused on helping women expunge their background checks, especially women who have encountered domestic violence relationships. As a domestic violence survivor myself, I had a felonious restraint on my background for over 10 years for kidnapping my own children, which my abuser accused me of. I was resilient enough to go into the court systems and expunge my own record, and today I'm doing my best to empower women to strive to get out of those domestic violence relationships and pursue expunging those records themselves, providing them with the legal knowledge and tools they need from my own experience.
