Technical Recruiter

Church Girl LLC

I am an author, motivational speaker, and spoken word artist whose job is to encourage the discouraged and give a voice to the voiceless. I heard TD Jakes say one day, "We cannot conquer the things we won't confront." I love talking to people about hard things because I believe if we can get to the root of an issue, we can learn how to live our best life by walking freely, being delivered, and healed.  

Additionally, I have a law degree so I love analyzing different areas of the law and finding ways to help those who find it difficult to help themselves. Please visit and subscribe to my website below.

Real rap, we to change the narrative. I understand this survey was done a while ago. My hope is when this survey is done again, we will see more equality. We have to fix this. I’m hoping we are more inclusive (all these numbers should be the same).
