I am a God-fearing, hard-working, motivated, and passionate woman looking for fun, friendship, and love! I was born in Brooklyn, New York, and raised in northern New Jersey. I absolutely LOVE to laugh, as I believe it is what keeps you young and gets you through life in good or bad times. I love to travel and exploring and learning about different cultures. I have lived and worked in Latin America, Europe, and the Middle East, and am looking forward to live and work in Africa one day soon.

I value my family and friendships, and I thank God for them and for all of the many blessings in my life.

I am in the field of international development, global health, and human rights, and I love what I do! I have a career, which is a great calling, and I am currently a Gender Initiative & Global Health Specialist at Management Sciences for Health - a global health organization. I also have a tutoring business on the side where I tutor in English, reading comprehension, writing, grammar, world history, politics, government, and Spanish.

I also plan to start a styling business in the near future to live out the creative facet of myself.

Praying; Networking; Listening; Making people laugh; Motivating people; Teaching; Dancing; Cross-word puzzles; Finding travel deals; Braiding; Styling; and Cooking (dishes that I know how to! ;) )

My smile and my sense of style.

My favorite books are: "Great Expectations" by Charles Dickens; "Jane Eyre" by Charlotte Bronte; "Leviathan" by Thomas Hobbes; "The Prince" by Machiavelli; "Letters to a Young Sister" by Hill Harper; "Grange Copeland" by Alice Walker.

My favorite movies are: "Why did I Get Married;" "Imitation of Life;" "Moonwalker;" "Soul Food;" "Love Jones," "Sparkle"

My favorite shows are: Family Guy; Love and Hip Hop; Real Housewives of Atlanta; Teen Mom (yes, I love reality television!)Criminal Minds; and I love watching the news.

My favorite music consists of R&B - I mean old school like Anita Baker, Patti LaBelle, Luther Vandross; Sam Cooke, the Spinners, the Delphonics, etc. I also like contemporary R&B. I also LOVE hip hop - hip hop, not contemporary rap music. I also love reggae, reggaeton, jazz, and contemporary gospel music. I also am open to different forms of music because of the love I have for music.
