Although originally raised on the East side of Chicago, she spent a large amount of time on the south side and the surrounding suburbs. With passionate experience in writing short stories, and poetry for over twenty-five years, she has become one of the most influential women of her generation. In May of 2012, she graduated with her Bachelor of Arts from the University of Illinois with distinction and honors in the department of Communication. Nneka obtained her Master's in Public Administration on May of 2014 from Governors State University. For her, writing is not a hobby, but a lifestyle. Nneka utilizes writing as an intellectual therapy and medicine. She uses her writing to advocate for change, empower, and acknowledge social issues in which many often silence. In 2014, Nneka became the founder of Ink'd Xpressions; a community-focused organization that "speaks life" via different methods of creativity. The Color of Play is Nneka's fourth publication, but first children's book. It is the first in its quartet series. The idea of serving and advocating for others is dear to her heart.view less
