Hello, my name is Erykah Michael and I am twenty-two years old. I am a recent graduate from Virginia Commonwealth University where I majored in psychology and minored in criminal justice. As a result of my hard work and determination I graduated from VCU as a first generation student, with a Bachelor of Science in psychology, Cum Laude. In the fall, I will be attending Marymount University for my masters, in pursuit of a degree in forensic and legal psychology. During my four years of undergrad I learned that there will be times where you would feel like giving up, but giving up is never the answer. You have to stay grounded in the word, believe in yourself, and remember that hard work truly pays off in the end.
Erykah attended over eight CESLF leadership tea parties beginning at the age of six years old and returned as a guest speaker for other tea party attendees.

I am a 2020 graduate from The Illustrious North Carolina Agricultural and Technical State University where I received my Bachelor’s of Science in Mathematics. While at school I was apart of a number of leadership groups on campus, including but not limited to, The Council of Presidents Parlimentarian and President of the Student Chapter of the Mathematical Association of America. I also had the privilege of becoming a member of the Alpha Mu Chapter of Delta Sigma Theta Sorority, Inc. Now that my undergraduate years have come to end, I am currently a Middle School Math at Jones Magnet Middle School in Hampton, VA. Becoming a mathematics teacher has been a goal of mine since I was little and now that I have the opportunity to live out my dreams I could not be more excited. Along with being a math teacher, I have also have my own Natural hair Consulting business called TwistedTiy. Thanks to my mother, I started attending CES Leadership Tea Parties and other related programs and events at a young age and through the Leadership Program I learned etiquette skills and the power of using my voice at a young age.
