Summary: Bio by Divine: Business Owner, Professional Vocalist, Model, Spoken Word Artist, Dancer, Actress, Inspirer, Mentor, Wife, Mother, Sister, Friend. I began singing when I was very young. I joined the choir, began playing the viola, and participating in every talent show there was. I wound up being the lead vocalist for the District One Contemporary String Ensemble, performing at the Academy of Music annually in addition to various schools all over. I started going to open mics and came across the 5 Spot aka The Black Lily. So I have had the opportunity to share the stage with some greats....Floetry, Jill Scott, Musiq, Bilal, Jaguar, Lady Alma, Yolanda Adams, etc. Yeah, a sista can blow. Well to get on that stage, you had to.I have performerd at various venues...North by Northwest, Warmdaddy's, Gloria's, etc. Then I began modeling. I started with a local entertainment company called BBS Productions. I started getting picked up by a lot of local designers, establishing a great relationship with them and making my presence known on the runway. I walked in a few fashion week shows. I got tired of being taken advantage of so I stareted training models myself and eventually began my own developmental agency. Trust me, I have trained ALOT of females in Philly that, as a result of my training and development, have been selected to participate in numerous shows and events. They may not express it, BUT ME AND PARTNERS KNOW THE TRUTH! LOL.... I began dancing with Jazz Omega who was with "The Fresh Prince" at the time....I'm telling my age, lol. Remember the song, "Girls in the world ain't nothing but trouble"? I went on to become apart of the State Property Tour as a model and dancer. I have a developmental fashion/entertainment company called DiMe Universal, LLC. (web being updated) I am a travel agent (www.universalexquisitetravels.biz).
