From an early age I moved around from city to city yet remaining in California. I always had a love for the classroom from the first day I walked into my kindergarten classroom. Everything about it intrigued me from my teacher to the smell of the classroom. I later on studied and became a preschool teacher as well as substitute teacher for many private schools. I worked for the Los Angeles unified School District for the majority of my work with young children. I have one son Joshua whom is my world. I currently reside in Compton California living with my mother Frances. I’ve never been married and currently a proud single parent. Joshua and I had one pet fish we named Junior who later died. Junior passing was a way for me to open up about death and discuss with my son but also a way for me to close certain chapters in my life. The old me was dead and gone as to junior our little fish. Learning from all things and making improvements for the better in life. I’ve been through some difficulties in life and felt the need to speak on them. I began writing as self- help and therapy for myself then later felt a greater responsibility to help and inspire others through my own personal life story. While in high school I began reading Zora Neale Hurston books I grew very fond of her and her work. I started writing short poems of my own while on the bus or when I was bored as a teenager. I was also inspired by a fellow family member Ken Carter whom book spoke about being successful. I also read the bible frequently to find comfort and guidance. I was inspired by these two books foremost and many others. I am currently working on my next book speaking on life after Snakes in My Garden. Followed by the sequel to this autobiography will be a book on love and relationships I’ve experienced. Stick around things will get crazy calm and weird through my writings.view less
