As a Renewal and Forgiveness Coach, she takes pride in any task that she performs and will go the extra mile to obtain success for her clients.

Redina decided to embark on new projects after being asked by an accomplished author, Cheryl Polote Williamson, to be a part of a Christian women's anthology which allowed her to begin healing from the wounds of her past. Education was her first vehicle, but finding God is the real reason she can do His work for His people. As a best selling award- winning author for book Soul-Source, Redina served as a proud co-author of the book nominated as an Indie Author Awards Finalist and was a recipient

of the Soar Award.
