She attended Georgia State University for her undergraduate and master’s degree where she majored in Education. She obtained her doctorate from Northcentral University in Administration and Supervision. Professionally, she has been an educator and advocate for nearly 30 years. During that time, she has been a teacher, administrator, and district leader. LaTonya is a self-proclaimed life-long learner and whole-heartedly believes in the power of education. Having persevered through her own trials and tribulations as a youth, she knows what it takes to turn adversity into triumph. She has experienced first-hand how working with youth can empower and positively impact their lives, especially those who are the most vulnerable. Therefore, she has made it her life assignment to “be the model” by volunteering, mentoring, and serving over the years with various youth programs and foundations. Her tenacity, strong leadership skills, and community involvement has led her to focus on the unique needs of youth who are often underserved and underrepresented; hence, commonly overlooked in educational and social settings. She is determined to eradicate the negative effects of these salient injustices by providing these young people a positive framework for sustainable success in their personal lives and communities. She is of the belief that, “We are all connected. If you’re not touching lives, you’re not living life, you’re merely existing.” https://www.lblegacy.org/contact daily 0.75 2021-03-20 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6020653ebeed354b4e31919e/1615258451002-OB6VFDH831P5RX06S70W/pexels-anna-shvets-3727464.jpg Contact https://www.lblegacy.org/volunteer daily 0.75 2021-03-22 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6020653ebeed354b4e31919e/1615325460146-PI1PJ7CRIZZDWL6SSGQA/gettyimages-96162187-612x612.jpg Volunteer - Because a helping hand helps.

She has always had a thirst for knowledge which led her to Georgia Southern University where she obtained her bachelor’s degree in Family and Consumer Sciences. She then went on to obtain her master’s degree from Columbus State University and her educational specialist degree from Troy State University.

His life and professional experiences allow him to bridge the gap between growing teens/young adults and successful professionals in their fields of passion. His contribution to the organization is providing the latest technological framework and media that allows seamless tracking of personal development and career growth with an emphasis on efficiency and high youth impact. Kelsey is able to help adolescents see much farther and clearer into where they want to go than before by shining lights on the opportunities around them and therefore, creating a lasting intrinsic sense of motivation that is vital for personal success. He is a Georgia native who moved to New York City to pursue a degree in Finance at Pace University. In New York, he balanced going to school, being a high fashion model which meant going to several castings a day for weeks at a time and starting his first business aimed at helping students like himself discover the best student loan repayment options. Shortly after growing his business to a self sustaining level, he signed to additional agencies in London, Belgium, LA and Asia. During his travels, he undertook many philanthropic projects including quite literally rescuing a man from slavery and returning him to his family. After returning to America, Kelsey moved back to Georgia and quickly started other entrepreneurial endeavors. Today, he is a full time real estate investor, owner of a restaurant in Atlanta, a trucking business and a student loan repair business with a long term goal of being a full time philanthropist in less popular areas. His passions include helping others see farther than they can in their current situation, taking initiative in the lives of those around him, truly searching for as much joy as he can in every situation and working on his dirtbike. Our only responsibility in life is to help others in whatever ways we can. I’ve found that oftentimes we mistake life with our perspective of it, we have trouble creating new depths in emotion, or we sometimes exhaust ourselves by overly serving our wants and not our needs. If our personal foundations are off, it’s hard to focus on thriving. Through LB Legacy Network’s trueness as a safe haven for all earnest seekers of academia, joy, professionalism, and overall success in life and he’s proud of his role to help usher the new generation towards living abundant lives. https://www.lblegacy.org/gallery daily 0.75 2025-10-24 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6020653ebeed354b4e31919e/f22df1a9-f905-468a-af55-7f126a906225/About.png https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6020653ebeed354b4e31919e/c6b7ccb0-e60d-42b3-afe4-a6f2f464e2ea/About+%282%29.png https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6020653ebeed354b4e31919e/b7c6a0b7-af4d-489b-bd5d-8d224b764c91/Home+%282%29.png https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6020653ebeed354b4e31919e/541a42d3-5074-483a-8ede-8aae0704cfcf/Home.png https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6020653ebeed354b4e31919e/02fbca35-962c-458a-bdcd-c45e991bcbd7/Home+%281%29.png https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6020653ebeed354b4e31919e/1199bcf6-ceb7-4890-9cc4-27135cdf4436/About.png https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6020653ebeed354b4e31919e/b8bd39de-c022-4d97-ab42-ff96367959a6/Home+%283%29.png https://www.lblegacy.org/donors daily 0.75 2025-10-24 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6020653ebeed354b4e31919e/3d2b17a1-fa91-4f7f-a6fc-74cfdf10ae4c/drshakirarice.jpeg https://www.lblegacy.org/what-we-do daily 0.75 2025-10-24 https://www.lblegacy.org/contact-1 daily 0.75 2025-10-27
