Divine is a mother of 3, poet, community activist, actress, and author. Divine began writing poetry at the age of 12 and performed her first poem at the age of 17. After exposing her writing to a LIVE audience Divine realized that there is POWER in the SPOKEN WORD and pursued a career in performing and teaching performance arts to youth and adults. During her journey Divine has released 2 poetry CDs and is currently working on her first book called Something Beautiful, a life skills guide for young women. Divine is using this outlet to share her personal experiences in how she overcame her obstacles. Since her start Divine has had the privilege of opening up for Actress Cheryl Lee Ralph and Classical Violinist Daniel Bernard Romaine. Divine has worked with Actor and poet, Malcolm Jamal Warner, Umar Bin Hasan of the LAST POETS. Divine also performed in Phoenix Arizona production of Vagina Monologues and began pursuing an acting career since her lead role in Second Chance a Big I production (www.secondchancefilm.com). Although writing the spoken word is her first love, Divine makes it a point to implement her skill in everything she puts her hands on. Shes created a picture book called The Joys of Fatherhood and although the title sounds a little reversed, her inspiration came from the lack of childrens books that are not reflecting real life pictures of real life fathers interacting with their children. This book can be purchased on Amazon.com. Divine has also created Don’t Hold Your Tongue workshops where Divine chooses to plant the seed of not being afraid to say what you feel. Divine is currently attending The Art Institute of Phoenix full time to complete a Bachelors degree in Digital Filmaking and Video Production.
