One of her proudest professional accomplishments to date, is founding the local Dress for Success Winston-Salem affiliate, followed closely by the release of her book “Fierce and Fabulous” A Young Ladies guide to Inspiration and Positive Self-Image.  Her professional career also includes teaching Interpersonal Psychology at Forsyth Technical Community College and Merchandising at Hanesbrands.
