Johnnie Mae Dennison

My vision is to give back to our community, by providing Health, Education, and Consultation Services for individuals who may not have the drive, knowledge or education right now and who needs that extra motivation and push to become successful entrepreneurs, future educators, and or Leaders of Our Community. Snippet: I once was you, I once was that young lady who grew up in the “quote on quote” “hood”, where you thought there was no way out, where there has always been a saying, “seeing is believing” and I’m that believer that over came many obstacles, not only did I over come and break the odds, I became one of the first young woman of my generation in my neighborhood to graduate high school and months later to find out I was pregnant with my first son, while attending and finishing Cosmetology School, turned around by 21 with two kids, went back to school and received my AA in Early Childhood, on my third child, received my BS in Human Services w/ an Emphasis in Child and Family Welfare, First Masters in Higher Education w/ an Concentration in College Teaching, and with my last baby girl, I received my Second Masters in Educational Leadership while being a Full Time mother and employed full time. I had an opportunity to attend ShiftOmaha Entrepreneurship Program, I graduated and then became the Director.  I go on to say this, I have had the opportunity to teach many People that wanted the same thing I wanted and they were able to break obstacles by Shifting their mindset. I can say that believing in myself and with my kids being my motivation, I knew that God would not fail me. If I can break the cycle and build a bridge over time than you can too.  Slogan “You too Can do It! Shift your Mind and Be all That You Can Be! It’s Up From Here!”
