| Introduction | I was born on April 17th 1987 to a mother that has inspired me to be the best from that day on. I was born and raised in Chicago, Illinois. I attended Morgan Park High School in Chicago, Illinois and graduated with a high school diploma in 2004. I was the recipient of the 2004 Chicago Park District’s Junior Citizen of the year award. I received her B.A. in English Education in 2009 from Illinois State University in Normal, Illinois. I was involved in five extracurricular activities including the Black Student Union, the Competitive Cheerleading team, and Jumpstart an AmeriCorps program. Currently I am a ninth grade teacher at a Chicago Public High School and a graduate student at the University of Southern California. I have been volunteering and coaching cheerleading with the Chi-Town cheerleaders for over ten years. I have been dreaming of stories and writing them for over twenty years and I strive to bring a voice to people that endure everyday ordinary situations but need a release in wondering if they did, or are doing the right thing. My one general message is this... Do whatever it takes, to follow your dreams. |
