Meet The Founder

With a Doctorate in Healthcare Administration, Dr. Houston brings a unique blend of leadership, compassion, and expertise to her mission.

Through this venture, she continues to provide valuable resources and opportunities for individuals seeking to overcome barriers in their personal and professional lives.
