Inspired by the year of service and evaluating her life goals, Analise pursued an alternative teaching license from Metropolitan State University and obtained her Master’s in Education with a certification in Special Education.

She is a certified Texas teacher, grades 4th-8th, core subjects, with a special interest in the Social Science aspects of the STEM field. Soulliaa has also been trained in trauma response and recovery utilizing EMDR, with a desire to study Somatic Experiencing trauma interventions in the future. 

Terri Gill is a licensed cosmetologist, excellent braider, and long term bestie to Kanisha who has experience working in child care and salons. She will be there to take your braiding skills to the next level. Have you wanted to know how to add extensions? Or how to do some of the really cool styles? She is your girl! 

Lorena Alomia's passion is cooking. Her catering business is Delicias by Lorena, where she specializes in Colombian Street Foods and Afro-Latino Soul Food. Their motto is "Taste Something Different, Share Something Delicious." They are committed to bringing new flavors and variety to the Des Moines food scene. In 2020,  Lorena was honored with the Face of Diversity Award by the Iowa Restaurant Association. Her meals can also be vegan-friendly. When she is not cooking, she enjoys traveling, eating, and dancing. 

Plus your favorite, Kanisha Tillman of course. Y'all already know her, right? Well, she will be leading you through hair care along with bath bomb making for fun.

The children will have separate activities and dedicated teachers. The teachers will lead them through age-appropriate activities that are based around introducing and celebrating Black excellence. 

The parents will have opportunities to take hair care workshops with Kanisha and to learn from other Black community members as well. We will have open conversations, thorough lessons, and lots of fun! 

There are a few surprises, of course! We can't tell you everything now.
