- About me:
- The strengths that I being are: A unwavering desire to succeed and overcome insurmountable odds. Diversity in all aspects of writing, art, articulate public speaking, creative innovative thinking, leadership, mediation, advocacy, consulting and organization experience. I believe that is our moral responsibility to maintain ethics and competency in all aspects of life. For it is our duty to develop and maintain a strong commitment to excellence and our overall desire to succeed.
Student at Troy University in Albany, Georgia and a business administration major. I own and operate an online business called: Prime Loan Group (www.primeloangroup.com). I am an experienced pageant recruitment & publicity coordinator/consultant for the Miss Sparkle (Esteem) Success Pageant. I have seventeen years of modeling experience. I have been trained as a singer, actress, dancer and fierce pageant competitor with a definitive love for high fashion! I have advocated for adoption, persons with disabilities and troubled youth. Currently, I am employed by KR Marketing/ Organization Specialist and Cool V's personal assistant. The marketing director and CO CEO of “The Cake Lady Bakery.” Black Business Women Online member, Humanity Healing Supporter/ Trunk Hustlers Administrator/ Oporation We Care Administrator, Mentor for S.R.B.W.I. (Southern Rural Black Women Initiative) for economic and social justice! I also work with the Children's Defense Fund through the YALT (Youth Advocate Leadership Training) program. My plans for the future include developing my own non profit organization called the GO FISH Project (Go Out and Find Individuals Sufficient Homes for life!). I want to teach youth the importance of developing multiple streams of income and to diversify their funds. Past achievements include: Honor graduate, Modeling overseas, Miss Georgia Teen Cover Girl, National Cover Miss Teen, Miss Georgia - Adult Division, National Adult Dance winner at the Michael Beaty Expo. Regional Student Artist Award for Kawanis winner. My art work has been displayed in the local mall and at museums. Former panelist/Vice President for Street Queenz - The Movement. Two Proclamations from the City of Albany for my work with and for persons with disabilities. Etc. My work with persons with disabilities stems from my own personal experiences as a visually impaired auditory learner. As the oldest of two children, education, excellence, achievement, responsibility, and service to humanity has always been a part of our life. A life without service is a life without meaning and purpose. In our efforts to achieve this goal it is my belief that, “We are all children of the light. So, lets not fight the radiant sun within us. Instead I employ us all to embrace and polish up our perfect imperfections. That way we may each shine together flawlessly upon the beautiful necklace of life.”(Jarvita/Queen Jay 1)
