is an author, speaker and motivator. In addition to preaching and teaching, she is a conference presenter conducting workshops and seminars for women and church leaders.  She has authored the book and developed the program called “A Remarkable Woman”.  This fresh and relevant ministry uses a unique blend of faith, scripture and practical principles to help women discover the “you” God created you to be. The ministry has touched the lives of many women.  Women have been transformed from places of stagnation and uncertainty to a place of purpose, power and passion.  The program helps women to discover their authentic selves and to become simply “remarkable”.  www.aremarkablewoman.com
