She is many things, singer, song writer, actress, author but her definition remains rooted as “Miss Quote, The Spoken Word Poet”, her deep dedication to her craft is partnered with a reverence that speaks to her consciousness to influence and unite.

Miss Quote approaches her audiences dexterously and thoughtfully, wanting nothing more but to influence recovery and empowerment within the minds of her audience.
