I have 3 delightful kids, twin boys, Isaiah Jamal and Noah Juwan, a Nubian princess named Kayla, and a Top Shelf hubby, Kenneth.
I retired from the United States Air Force in 2001 after serving my country for 20 years. I lived and worked in some really beautiful places (March AFB, Riverside, California - 2 years; Lindsey Air Station, Wiesbaden, Germany - 6 years; Soesterberg Air Base, The Netherlands - 3 years; Aviano Air Base, Aviano, Italy - 2 years; Carswell Air Force Base, Fort Worth, Texas - 2 years; Andrews Air Force Base, Morningside, Maryland - 5 years) and met some really incredible people that are still my friends today.
Music
I love old skool music heavy on the Parliament, Funkadelics, Cameo, Maze, etc. My favorite male rhythm and blues artists are Robin Thicke, Donell Jones, and Rahsaan Patterson. My favorite female rhythm and blues artists are Chaka Khan, Tamia, and Joss Stone. I also love jazz artist Rachelle Ferrell who I was personally introduced to at the North Sea Jazz Festival held in Rotterdam, The Netherlands. Other jazz favorites are Kenny G., Najee, Kirk Whalum, Earl Klugh, and my oh my! Boney James.
Movies
I love horror movies. My favorites are Bram Stoker's Dracula, The Cave, 30 Days of Night. My next favorite genre is comedies. I thought "Little Man" was hilarious!
Television
My favorite shows to watch are mostly court shows, Judge Joe, Judge Alex, Judge Judy, Judge Lynn Toler. I also love comedies. Right now I'm really feeling "Chocolate News" and Martin Lawrence's "First Amendment Standup".
Books
I love anything scary. My favorite author is Stephen King and after him, Anne Rice. I love to read my black authors too. My all time favorite African American author is J. California Cooper.
Heroes
I am my own hero because I live my life my way with integrity, honesty, and dignity. I live by the belief that no one is coming to rescue me. Thus I must be my own Knight in Shining Armor. Only I can save myself from myself. I am a Nubian Warrior Queen.
God - The Highest Power, LL Cool J, Colin Powell, Michelle Obama, Hillary Clinton, Judge Lynn Toler, J. California Cooper, my African Ancestors whom I know absolutely nothing about.
