Who am I?

I am an American writer, podcaster, film maker and political pundit. I was born and raised on Prince Edward Island in Canada, and frequently traveled back and forth between my mother's island home and my father's Washington D.C. abode. After facing a lifetime of severe rural racism in a community that wasn't quite ready to tackle tolerance, I moved to the United States to attend college and never left. My life has been diverse and eclectic over the years, but it changed dramatically when I married and moved to Gary, IN where I served my community as a non-profit director and my family as a stay-at-home-mother. It made me an advocate for school choice and for promoting justice in the Black community through educational opportunities, limited government interference and self-empowered communities. My experiences with racism have driven me to advocate for reconciliation through forgiveness and grace. After a move to California in 2010 I shifted to political blogging in order to be home with my children and the rest is history. I've never said no to a new adventure. I love learning and I have let that drive motivate me to try new things and step into new opportunities. I've been a tutor and advocate, a comedian, an actress, a film maker and a writer. But my greatest roles in life have been mother and wife.

I get to talk for a living...isn't that amazing?
