About Me

»-(¯..v..¯)-» Design your MySpace with MyLook «-(¯..v..¯)-«Myspace Layouts + Myspace Graphics I am a happy, confident, respectable, bold, beautiful, nubian queen. Born in Columbia, South Carolina and raised in the Northwest Suburbs of Chicgao, IL. I currently reside in the Atlanta Metro Area in Georgia. My parents have been married for over 39 years. I have four sisters and no brothers. I am a down home southern woman with a northern twist. My family means the world to me. I am a well established business woman. I am independent and a very successful over achiever, who knows how to have fun and live life to the fullest. I have been blessed to work for Fortune 500 Companies from Prudential to Charles Schwab Company, Inc., including non-profit organizations from coast to coast. I have worked for over 12 years with children and youth in the church, the community and the local school district, holding positions from Teacher/Teacher Assistant to Program Director. I currently hold many different professional and leadership roles across the nation. I am the recipient of many awards, honors and scholarships. I am deeply spiritual and my faith is rooted deeply in God. I love sports and enjoy going to games - football, basketball, baseball, etc. I love the beach! I work out 4 times a week at the gym and I am a good health fanantic - be good to your body and it will be good to you. I have mad (a lot) energy. I believe in living for today because tomorrow is not promised and that life is what you make it.

My Interests

Working to make a positive difference in my life and in the lives of those around me; Helping those who are less fortunate than myself; giving back to my community and the church; traveling all over the world; sports; working out; going to the movies; experiencing life

I'd like to meet:

DIVERSE people of different colors, races, religions and backgrounds, who are “Real”, honest, true, genuine, open minded, well rounded, down to earth people from all over the world, who know how to and like to have fun and enjoy life. I can appreciate a person who knows how to hold his/her own, engaging me in an intellectual conversation that ignites and stimulates my mind beyond the physical touch, leaving me wanting more. So if you are local or long distance and it doesn’t bother you that you are, send me a message. A real friend is hard to find, difficult to leave and impossible to forget. In order to find what you are looking for, you have to know what you want. Friends are what you make them - a reason, a season or a lifetime.

The Truth

The truth doesn't hurt. It is the lies that a person tells to cover it up.

Love

Love doesn't hurt. It is the expectations that a person has about it that does.
