About Me

Born and raised in New York City. Although I was born in Manhattan, I grew up in Brooklyn and consider Brooklyn to be home. I love God first and foremost. I love my family as well as extended family and those who I call true fam who keep me grounded and focused. I love my spiritual family for giving me stability in my spiritual foundation.I keep it real without being pretentious. Right now I am undergoing a transformation so I ask for your patience. I am going through the process of an upgrade so stay tuned. By the way, the baby in my profile is my niece-she is holding it down for me until I take an actual pic.
