MY STORY
Life has a way of throwing curveballs. At just 23, I faced one of my greatest challenges: I was diagnosed with bipolar disorder with psychotic features. To say I was devastated would be an understatement. I was overwhelmed, speechless, and weighed down by a diagnosis that felt impossible to carry.
At the time, I was already juggling so much, engaged, raising two young children of my own and my bonus son, all while grieving the recent loss of my mother. The emotional toll was immense. My world felt like it was unraveling, and with so much on my plate, I knew it wasn’t just stress.
​
For years, I struggled to accept the reality of my diagnosis. It felt like a shadow, always looming. I hid it, carrying shame, fear, and isolation, unsure of how to live with this hidden part of me, something I now understand was placed in my life with a divine purpose. I no longer ask why me.
Throughout it all, I not only advanced in my federal career but also earned Bachelor's and Master's degrees in Business Administration, Procurement and Acquisition, and Public Administration, training that now allows me to serve others from both lived and professional experience. Today, I continue that path as a PhD student in Public Administration, focusing on mental health access, veteran advocacy, and systemic reform. For me, education isn’t just achievement; it’s a form of accountability to the communities I serve.
The more I've leaned into understanding my challenges, the more my perspective has shifted. I no longer carry shame. My diagnosis doesn't define me, it's just another part of my story, a story that is still being written. I face it head-on, knowing that acknowledgment is a sign of strength, not weakness. I now speak with faith, resilience, and purpose; unafraid to stand in my truth. My story isn’t just about survival. It’s about transformation.
I’ve come to understand that I am not alone. God’s grace has carried me through my darkest hours. His presence has been my anchor. It's by His will that I continue to move forward. What once felt like a struggle now feels like my calling. If my journey can be a light to even one person, then its all been worth it.
I wanted to take a moment to express my deepest gratitude for all the support and assistance you've provided me with during the veteran disability retirement process, federal disability retirement process, mental health concerns, and career assistance. Your guidance and expertise have been invaluable throughout these challenging times. Your unwavering dedication and commitment to helping me navigate through these complex processes have made a significant difference in my life. Your kindness patience, and understanding have meant more to me than words can express. I am truly grateful for your ongoing support and encouragement. Your professionalism and compassion have made a lasting impact on me, and I feel fortunate to have had you by my side every step of the way. Thank you once again for everything you've done for me. Your assistance has made a profound difference, and I am deeply appreciative of your efforts.
