Growing up, my family was not religious church-goers. Additionally, education was never a topic of discussionin my home. When I realized that no one in my familyhad ever graduated college with a four-year degree, Isat out to break that cycle.

At nine, my maternal great-grandmother introduced meto the Christian faith. I struggled with an event thatwould change how I viewed the world. I asked my mother if I could spend the summer with mygreat-grandmother. “Grand” began teaching meHebrew 11:1, “Now faith is the substance of thingshoped for, the evidence of things not seen.” Becauseof “Grand’s” guidance, I trusted God for everything andregained 80% of my hearing.Because of God’s mercy and grace, I am dedicated toserving people in the community.
