Immediate Future (0–1 Year)

Complete My Bachelor's Degree (2025)

I’m on track to finish my Bachelor's degree in Business Management, and I’m keeping my 4.0 GPA strong. Once I graduate, I’m ready to step into roles that will challenge me and help me grow. I’m looking at positions like Business Analyst, Operations Coordinator, or Project Assistant, where I can apply what I’ve learned and continue to build my skill set.
Expand PTNBEAUTY

PTNBEAUTY is my baby, and I want to see it grow into something bigger. I’m working on expanding the brand, getting our name out there, and increasing product lines. My focus is on improving our social media marketing, collaborating with influencers, and building customer loyalty. I want PTNBEAUTY to be a go-to brand for beauty and lifestyle, and I’m determined to make it happen.
Grow My Advocacy and Public Speaking Work

Serving on the boards of "We Care Foster Care" and the "L.I.F.E Project" has allowed me to share my story and make an impact. I want to continue growing my influence as a public speaker, advocating for foster youth and human trafficking survivors. I plan to connect with more organizations, attend conferences, and really build my platform to inspire and make change.
Mid-Term (1–3 Years)

Step into Leadership Roles

With my Business Management degree and my experience running PTNBEAUTY, I’m ready to take on leadership roles. I’ll be looking for opportunities to manage teams or lead initiatives, whether it’s in a business setting or in the nonprofit world. I’m passionate about advocacy and helping others, so I want to merge my skills in business with my heart for service.
Launch or Scale a Social Enterprise

I have a vision of creating a social enterprise that provides job training and mentorship for foster youth or human trafficking survivors. I want to build something that not only generates revenue but also makes a difference in the lives of people who need it most. It’s about finding that balance between business and purpose.
Mentor Others and Share My Experience

I’ve come a long way from my beginnings, and now it’s time to give back. I plan to start a mentorship program that combines business training with life skills. Whether it’s foster youth, aspiring entrepreneurs, or anyone who’s been through tough times, I want to share what I’ve learned and help others reach their potential.
Long-Term (3–5+ Years)

Turn PTNBEAUTY into a National Brand

I see PTNBEAUTY becoming a household name. My goal is to expand the brand nationally, growing our product line, and maybe even breaking into physical retail stores. I’ll be looking at investors or business partnerships to scale, and I’m ready to take on whatever challenges come with that growth.
Lead in Advocacy and Policy

I’m not just here to run businesses—I want to make real change. In the long run, I see myself stepping into larger leadership roles in advocacy for foster youth and survivors of human trafficking. I’ll continue to push for reform and systemic change, using my voice and experience to make a difference on a bigger scale.
Move into Executive Leadership

Ultimately, I want to step into executive roles—whether it’s in my own companies or with larger organizations. I’ll use my skills in business management and my passion for advocacy to lead with purpose, making an impact in both the business world and the nonprofit space.
Personal Growth and Development

I’ll never stop learning. I’m open to getting more certifications, taking on new challenges, and continuing to build my skills. My network is going to grow, and I’ll make sure I’m surrounded by people who challenge me and support my vision. And through it all, I’ll stay grounded, maintaining a balance between work and my personal life so I can thrive in all areas.

Given my background in business management and my passion for social causes, I’m exploring grad school options that align with both. Here are a few areas I’m considering:

Social Entrepreneurship: I’m drawn to this field because it focuses on creating social impact through innovative business models. It feels like a natural fit with my work in foster care and supporting human trafficking survivors.

Nonprofit Management: With my roles at We Care Foster Care and the L.I.F.E Project, advanced skills in managing and leading nonprofits would be incredibly valuable.

Public Administration: I’m interested in this because it would allow me to influence policy and manage public sector programs, which aligns with my advocacy work.

Business Analytics: Enhancing my skills in data-driven decision-making could help me optimize my online businesses and make informed strategic choices.

Mental Health Counseling: Given my involvement with survivors and young adults, specializing in mental health could deepen my ability to offer support and understanding.

Leadership and Organizational Development: This area could help me advance my leadership skills, benefiting both my business ventures and nonprofit work.

I’m excited about exploring these possibilities and seeing which path resonates the most with my goals and values.
