WHAT’S YOUR FAVORITE THING ABOUT TGS?

Networking and building relationships with young, Black excellence.


WHAT ACCOMPLISHMENT ARE YOU MOST PROUD OF?

I am most proud of trusting God and myself by taking the leap of faith to quit stable employment in 2018 and transition into full-time entrepreneurship without any formal business training or knowledge. I went against the grain of everything that I was taught about what the “American Dream” looked like and how to be successful. I have since grown my business from a solo practice to a group mental health practice with a team of clinicians of color!


One word to describe yourself:

Ambitious


what is your favorite quote or mantra?

To whom much is given, much is required.
