FinalistBio
As a dedicated single parent, I have always prioritized education as both a personal goal and a means to create a better future for my family. I hold a certificate in Business Management, which has equipped me with a strong foundation in leadership, organization, and entrepreneurship. Currently, I am continuing my educational journey by pursuing a degree in African American Studies—a field that deeply resonates with my passion for culture, history, and social justice. Balancing parenthood, work, and school has been challenging, but it has also strengthened my resilience and drive. I am committed to using my education to inspire change, uplift my community, and serve as a role model for my child and others navigating similar paths.
