Claim To Fame:

Attending college at 55 inspires me to educate children because it proves that learning never ends. My journey shows that age is not a barrier to growth. I want to encourage young minds to stay curious, embrace challenges, and believe that education can open doors at every stage of life.

Most Memorable Moment:

One of my most memorable moments attending college was joining a sorority and being accepted into an HBCU. The sisterhood, unity, and pride I felt were unforgettable. Surrounded by culture, history, and empowerment, I gained lifelong friendships and a deeper appreciation for education, heritage, and the strength of community.
