Get to know Antoinette

  • I believe that everyone should have a “person”, or a support system to help them walk through life. Social work embodies so many values that I adapt in my personal life.  Being a part of a profession that allows me to be true to myself and support others has always been ideal.

  • Touching the lives of others is my favorite thing about this career. Being able to provide clients with care, various resources, while problem-solving and navigating through issues as a unit. I emphasize the term unit because I consider the work we do together being a team, and I think this strengthens my connection with clients.

  • Anything from Maya Angelou is my favorite but one that comes to mind:

    “Nothing can dim the light which shines from within.”

  • Not everyone is provided the same luxuries in life and I feel that my role is alleviating some of the pressures that come with that and bridging the gap. I wish that every client feels solace and a sense of relief when entering our office space, as I do being that it provides a sense of home.

  • I may have given this away with my quote, but I’ll add a few more. My inspirational people include Beyonce, Maya Angelou, Michelle Obama, and truthfully the women in my family. I believe that powerful women, come from other prestigious women and who would I be not to acknowledge the women before me.

  • My personal library includes so many that I don’t have a favorite book, but the self-help authors I’d recommend would include: Elaine Welteroth, Iyanla Vanzant, Maya Angelou, Michelle Obama, and Shannon Boodram to name a few.
