Her path has taken many twists and turns. She had an amazing career in human services. She's currently Deputy Director at the Ruth Ellis Center. She's also a community activist and the matriarch of a gold star family. She's always moving forward.

Her business “Café Ruby” will open in 2019 as “the ultimate urban global coffee house and wine bar!” Why coffee?
