119. Meet Student Development Coordinator Carmen McIver

Carmen McIver (@carmanista) is a Student Development Coordinator at Brookhaven College and Personal Blogger where her passion is to bridge the gap between low-income, minority families and higher education, inspire people to become the best version of themselves, and empower young girls to understand they have the power to pen their own story and no one else can.⁠

Originally from North Carolina, Carmen graduated from Queens University of Charlotte majoring in Sociology and Communications. She wanted to take her skills into television and quickly realized that was not the career that would make her happy. She prayed to the Lord and moved to Dallas in 2018 bringing her to the field of Education and she doesn't plan on leaving.⁠⁠

Outside of work, Carmen has a personal blog called Carmen Writes where she instills hope and joy into the life of everyone who reads.⁠⁠

This week on the podcast Carmen sat down with @jnicolethecreative to talk about her path to purpose and her determination to overcome the limitations of who others thought she would be. ⁠
