An G J is a true “go-getter”; she’s a natural survivor, a hard-working dreamer whose visions take her to great heights. She has pulled herself from shallow depth, going from lower to middle class, to reach goals set by herself, for herself. An G J enjoyed a childhood full of strong people, lots of relatives, and plenty of close family ties and “characters.” She is a creative thinker, touched by the pen at the age of seven, who would create and design lifestyles, scenes, and the most believable characters while playing her own game, “Little People,” with her brothers. She chose not to model after anyone, but to pull from many to shape and mold the people she writes about, perfect the personality she possesses, and provides options for those who mattered most, “the children.”
In addition to being an author, An G J is a firm believer in education and family values, and is particularly interested with guiding inner-city youth. She is a caring and giving foster parent and has been for over twenty years. For An G J, fostering children is not a gift or “giving back to the community”; it is a mission and an opportunity to explore the world through the eyes of a child via travel, education, experience, and positive role models. She often finds clever and unique ways to discourage low academic achievement and unwanted behaviors. An G J has worked with children who are ADHD/ADD and she has her own theory on behavior medications and modifications. She believes positive experience captures the attention of many and it provides both parent and child the survival skills during the season of showers, rainfalls, and monsoons. Therefore, she encourages lot of laughter, conversations, therapeutic training, and counseling combined with supportive friends and family. Realizing that some children are not privileged to have it all, no matter how basic these things are, she decided to make this a reality by providing a temporary home conducive for the children to live and survive in. She wants them to draw upon positive memories in times of despair, to reach deep within to find strength to accomplish goals and find a positive place in life to hope and dream.
