Born a child that was the subject of a heroin addict while she was pregnant, at full term, my birth weight was only 3 pounds, so I’ve been a fighter from the beginning. I was placed in foster care because my mother couldn’t complete a drug rehab program. I was in foster care for 3 years until I was adopted by a family that took me under their wing and molded me into the young lady I am right now.
I was born in New York, but raised in Kissimmee, which is on the outskirts of Orlando. Alumni of Osceola High School who graduated with a 3.6 GPA and relocated to Jacksonville because my adoptive mother fell sick and my sister was already living here, so I came here to assist in caring for her.
At this point in my life, I am dedicating much of my time bringing awareness to Domestic Violence. So many incidents go unheard of until something drastic takes place, and I want to be there to help prevent those measures from taking place. Hence the title, Silent For What?!?!
