She is an award-winning comedian, transformational speaker, celebrated actress, best-selling author, certified emotional intelligence coach, and serial entrepreneur. With over 15 years of experience in entertainment and personal development, she has masterfully turned her pain into purpose and her voice into a vessel for global healing.

She is the visionary founder of Baggage Claim Worldwide, a transformational movement and international women’s empowerment conference defined as “a safe destination for women to claim, heal, and release any emotional baggage we all carry.” Her life’s mission is rooted in reminding every man, woman, and child: You are not the bags you carry.
