About Me

Welcome to my WORLD.

​

I am a Mom, Wife, Award-Winning Healthcare Executive, Poet, Podcaster, Knowledge Donor, Minority Woman Business Owner, Author of The Tia Bua Book Collection, and philanthropist.


My wellness journey sprouted from childhood with my desire to become calm in a chaotic world. 

​

When not working, I spend my time with the best part of me, my family. I believe in empowering others no matter what their journey is, while expressing gratitude for anyone who has been a part of mine.
