On a Personal Note

 

Along with Mia’s countless professional accolades, she has also been a Deaconess at her church for 20 years. Mia loves the water and scuba diving is one of her favorite ways to experience all that the ocean has to offer. When she isn’t in the water, you can find her at the movies catching up on the latest releases or reading a book. Mia comes from a large family and her love for that spreads far and wide. She is the mother of an incredible daughter, Azia, who is a teacher and dancer and Mimi to the newest addition, her grandson Noah, who she describes as the “light of her life”
