About Me

I'm the CEO/Founder of HiyaahPower.com , a dynamic online community for women. We have members in 40 states, the UK, Caribbean, The Netherlands and Africa. I created HiyaahPower.com to provide empowerment resources for women, connect forward thinking women with like-minded individuals, and to increase positive networking opportunities for women nationwide. We also have a dynamic team of empowerment consultants who are committed to providing women with access to positive resources and feel good products.

After traveling the globe I realized that women everywhere struggle with many of the same issues--regardless of race, creed, religion, or soci-economic status. I am on a mission to connect 1 million positive women...or women who want to become positive-minded with one another. When women put there minds to something...look out world. Please help Hiyaah Power virtually connect an empowered coalition of women who care about the images that are portrayed in the media, the fact that we still earn 75 cents on the dollar (and that's if you're blessed enough to be in the US...it gets worse globally), the need for open discussion of women's issues, and those who also want to have some fun and enjoy life in the process. In the midst of doing serious work...I also like to have serious fun! Visit us today... www.HiyaahPower.com
