Growing up in Pilsen, most

always been a passion of hers.
She earned a Bachelor of Busi-

a concentration in Accounting
and Finance from Roosevelt Uni-
versity and a College Planning
Consultant Certification from the
Heartland Institute of Financial
Education. As a first-generation
college student, she has used her
financial knowledge and resou-
rces to empower women to be
financially independent, as she
believes that the following encom-
passes all independent women.

hed Alumni award.
She is a servant leader of the
community and an advocate of
Women Empowerment with 18
years of experience in her field.
She is a proud mother of Ethan
