If you haven’t heard by now, my full name and quote is on page 30 of this month’s issue of ESSENCE magazine. Please pick up an April edition when you get the chance. In celebration of their 40th anniversary, ESSENCE Magazine asked readers to share what ESSENCE has meant to them, so I did. Click here to read my full story. They only used a snippet of my story, but I am so blessed to have my name and thoughts published in the magazine of my dreams.

To my friends and family: Thank you for the constant support and encouragement! I’M ON MY WAY TO BIG THINGS!
