Syndy, raised in a small town in northern Virginia right outside of Washington, D.C., has walked a colorful journey of life. Many see her smile, her optimism, and the outward appearance of the seemingly ease of walking through life with poise and class. One would never imagine a triumphant overcoming of such immense challenges in her upbringing, a survivor of domestic violence, a force with which to be reckoned in the world at the early age of 17, and surviving without compromising in the professional world as a young adult woman. Syndy uses her experiences as a useful resource of understanding the strength of a person and as a woman, and has a mission of unveiling that knowledge within as many individuals willing to put in the work to discover it.
