If elected, what would you bring to The Blackyard Collective and the BYC Advisory Board?
I bring the balanced perspective of someone with many years of lived experiences in education as well as in business. I have learned to see things from both sides and have learned to give people the benefit of the doubt. Most people are trying really hard to be their authentic selves, and I try to help them manifest it. I will bring this approach to the table. Lastly, I will bring the same love and acceptance to others God has graced me with.
