Alicia has always had a passion for reading and writing. Growing up in Mt. Juliet, Tennessee - a suburb 20 minutes outside of Nashville, Alicia has always enjoyed the solitude that comes with reading and writing. Now fast forward 30 years later, Alicia is stirring up her passion again and says politely with her southern accent, "It's my time now". She calls this Phase 3 of her life where she gets to pursue her dreams. She says that she wants to make an impact on people through her writing and photography. She wants her gift to be used to bless others in a positive way.
