Key to Success: Prayer and consistency. I believe that in order to make a difference you have to be consistent.

Guilty Pleasure: A Montgomery delicacy, a red velvet cheesecake cupcake from Jozettie’s topped with a rich cream cheese layer.

Childhood Aspirations: As a child, I wanted to be a Judge Advocate General of the Navy (JAG). I was inspired by the tv show JAG and my fathers service to the United States Marine Corps.

First Job: I was a senate page for Senator Vivian Figures in eighth grade.

Best Advice: The best advice I ever received from my father, “Love God, Love People, pay your tithes and owe no one.”

Biggest Influence Personally & Professionally: I consider Jesus and my walk with Him as my biggest influence on my career growth. The journey in which I have embarked on is not my own and a reflection of Jesus’ favor over my life. The opportunities that I have been awarded, have not been obtained on my own merit.
