Courtney Jenkins a native of Western Massachusetts, was born February 2, 1975, in Springfield, MA and reared in Amherst and Northampton. At the tender age of seventeen, Courtney became the mother of her daughter D'ana Marje'. She is now the proud grandmother of A'laijah-Marje'. After great success in vocational education and work in Cosmetology, Medical Assisting, and the world of Retail Management, Courtney knew she yet had something else to fulfill in life, and that she needed to pursue a different avenue of education. So, after five short years, she obtained her Bachelor of Arts in Leadership, and her Master of Arts in Christian Counseling, both from Faith University (Tacoma, WA).
