Keisha is originally from Wisconsin, where she spent many years working in the area of nonprofit management and fundraising. In Wisconsin, she spent years working with women and families to overcome the obstacles that arise from living in poverty, and teaching job and life skills to give them the tools needed to be successful. In addition, she ran a virtual assistant business, geared toward giving women and moms a flexible working environment from home, with the goal of creating

a healthy work-life balance.

 

She spent five years advocating for women with disabilities, and collaborating with legislators in Washington D.C. to advocate equal rights for people with disabilities.  Keisha later moved to Washington D.C. to help promote awareness and empowerment for women who are victims of sexual assault and abuse.  Keisha now resides in Arizona with her two kids, ages 6 and 18, and is excited to work with the Momsrising team.
