Career advice:
Don’t dummy yourself down so that others in the room can be comfortable.
Most daring/brave thing you’ve ever done:
The most daring thing I’ve done was get myself and my children out of an abusive relationship.
Why is giving back important to you:
It’s part of my southern upbringing that we give to others. When we were young my parents would fix dinner plates for our older neighbors and my brother and I would take them to them. My father made sure we understood that it was our responsibility to look out for others and help where we saw a need.
Your passion:
My passion is helping others because I know what it’s like to feel like you have nowhere to turn.
Fashion, hair, or makeup tips:
Before I buy anything, I get one of my daughter’s opinions first. As I said, I like all things old so
