If I had a freeway billboard, it would read in bold, fearless letters: I AM HER.

I am her—the woman who has seen, heard, and experienced a journey I can only thank God for. My story began as a divine promise, delivered on my mother’s birthday. From that very moment, I knew my life held purpose and protection.

As the youngest of six children, I often found myself alone, searching for my own place to belong. My siblings, much older and already busy with their lives, didn’t always entertain me—so I learned early how to entertain myself. That independence shaped my spirit. It’s why I’m outgoing, curious, and unafraid to connect with new people and experiences.

Being the “last of the Mohicans,” as I like to say, my family held me to high standards—especially when it came to education. Their discipline became my foundation. I carried those values with me, staying on the honor roll throughout high school. When the time came to choose my next step, I wasn’t completely sure what I wanted, but I knew I wanted to serve and grow. So I joined the military. That decision changed my life, opening doors I never imagined.

While serving my country, I pursued my college education—earning my bachelor’s degree and later my master’s. That journey took courage, focus, and faith. My devotion and consistency are why I proudly say, I AM HER—the woman who kept pushing even when the path wasn’t clear.

But “I AM HER” is more than a personal declaration. It’s a message to every woman who’s ever questioned her purpose, her strength, or her worth. It’s about rising from your story with grace, using every lesson as fuel for your next chapter.

Today, I use my voice and education to serve others. I’m passionate about helping people heal, travel, and live freely. My book Luxury Travel on a Budget was written to show others that adventure and elegance don’t require breaking the bank.

Through my journey, I’ve learned that true wealth comes from experiences, not things. Traveling has taught me gratitude, resilience, and the beauty of stepping outside my comfort zone. I want others to feel that same freedom — to see the world, embrace new cultures, and rediscover themselves in the process.
My platform isn’t just about travel tips; it’s about transformation. Whether it’s through financial freedom, mental wellness, or mindful living, I believe everyone deserves a life filled with purpose and joy. Every story I share, every destination I highlight, is an invitation to dream boldly and live intentionally.

My next book, Hear to Heal, dives deeper—into the importance of nurturing mental health and finding peace in the journey. Hear to Heal was inspired by my own path of rediscovery — the highs, the heartbreaks, and the healing that came through reflection and faith. It’s a reminder that peace isn’t found in perfection but in presence. We heal when we allow ourselves to pause, feel, and listen — not just to others, but to our own voices.

Through its pages, I hope to encourage readers to release old pain, embrace self-compassion, and rebuild from a place of strength. Mental health deserves open conversation and honest storytelling, and that’s exactly what this book brings to the table. My goal is to spark healing, hope, and a renewed sense of purpose for everyone on their journey toward wholeness.

I AM HER because I care about people’s growth, happiness, and emotional well-being. I believe God created me to remind others that they, too, are worthy of joy, purpose, and freedom.
So if you ever see that billboard on life’s freeway, know that it’s not just my story—it’s our story.
You are her, too.
