President and CEO, Being A Blessing Enterprises LLC

I love Chicago! Born and raised here I have been Very blessed by the people, food, affordability and many amenities! Now that I'm a developer I am determined to give back to the city I love. I strive to transform abandoned properties into affordable homes particularly for first time home buyers. I aim to improve safety and more and am making a difference on Chicago's Southside.

Statement:

Everyone should get behind diversity, equality and inclusion in construction and all fields! Because everyone deserves an opportunity to be great, to feed their families and do work they enjoy. I like Construction because it is extremely lucrative, for All involved. In addition to an excellent financial return it can provide a feeling of fulfillment for all, make neighborhoods safer and life in turn more enjoyable. Everyone deserves access to short-term and generational wealth and stability. And there's enough opportunities in the world for everyone to do so.
