As a young girl, I fled a Civil War in my native country, Liberia, and resettled in Aurora. Since then, I have had the opportunity to live what now seems like an impossible American Dream. After graduating from Aurora Central, I earned a Bachelor’s and Master’s degree in Business Administration from Metro and CU respectively. I am the proud mother of a 24 year old daughter and I’ve worked hard to provide for her and operate a successful small mortgage brokerage business. I’ve dedicated my life to improving my community by helping build economic knowledge, capacity, and attainability for immigrant and low income communities. I serve on various community boards, and find joy in helping people reach their goal of home ownership through affordable housing as a mortgage broker.
Colorado has been one of the top business markets in the country for several years, but the cost of doing business has increased tremendously. The federal government has created a system that favors large corporations. Here in Colorado, we need an advocate for small local businesses as well as someone who will commit to supporting minority & women-owned businesses. As a minority business woman I will be that champion.
