I was born and raised in North Carolina by my lovely mother, Patricia. I was raised in a Pentecostal church.  
So much to say that I was raised in the “House of the Lord” since my youth!!!  I began the road to studying theology and preparing for ministry and I ultimately was first ordained in May of 2002. 
My first service was officiating the service of my dear mother in August of that year, 2002 when she passed away and went home to be with the Lord!.
