Latoya Jackson

Hi, my name is Latoya Jackson (absolutely no relationship to the infamous “The Jackson Family”). I am a native of Los Angeles, California with a BA from the University of California at Berkeley. I am currently residing in New York City, pursuing a masters’ degree in social entrepreneurship and international community development at New York University. My goal was to become a professional basketball player, but when the reality hit of me being way too small in stature - I sought other avenues to make a profound difference in the lives of other people. It has become my goal to develop youth sports programs in underdeveloped countries (particularly Africa) as a way to promote peace and gender equality. To learn more about my project, please visit my blog at: www.findlatoya.blogspot.com.

I enjoy traveling, sports, good food, and good people. Be blessed.
