Greetings, and welcome to THE GOOD NEWS media platform! My passion for writing and releasing my creativity began at a very young age, seven (7). Yes! I was just in the 2nd grade under the direction of an educational Angel, my teacher Ernestine Green. She noticed something special inside of me and allowed me to express myself through writing, creating, and speaking.
My love for the lord, mother's independence and determination to teach us how to be young ladies coupled with my father's entrepreneurial spirit and amazing musical talents (gospel vocalist and pianist) all made me who I am today, and I'm so humbly grateful. Another Angel, who at the age of 7 (what a coincidence--no, it was by design!) asked me to help get rid of all the bad news by writing a GOOD NEWSpaper. That little boy (NyRiian) is now 19 and he's my grandson (currently serving his country - U.S. Navy).
I have been blessed with a multitude of gifts and talents (writing/creating newspapers, directing & producing my own live audience talk show (Washington, DC) and soap opera (Richmond, VA) giving individuals who aspired to be writers, singers, actors, dancers, etc. opportunities to express themselves -- especially people who couldn't afford to attend college. Additionally, I have held positions in the public relations and marketing, executive (administrative), legal, human resources, modeling (former Niemen Marcus model) industries, and I love to sing! The bottom line is this: Through this particular media platform, God is allowing me to utilize ALL the gifts he blessed with me--and I'm so excited to share them with you. SO... COME ON FOLKS! LET'S SIT DOWN AND HAVE A GOOD TALK!
We're so excited to be journeying with THE GOOD NEWS!

Yes! This is the young man who came up with the idea of a "good" newspaper when he was only 7 years old. Now at 19, he is soaring in the U.S. Navy. NyRiian wants all children to know that no matter what challenges you face, you still can achieve your goals!
