Growing up with limited access to high-quality school options, it was only right that she become an advocate for her children to ensure they had access to the best education possible. As a Nashville Rise advocate, her goal is to ensure every child's educational needs are met through empowering the child's parents and leaving them feeling confident enough to elevate their voices around advocating for change.
