A Little Bit About ME!!  

MonaLisa is a Philanthropist. In 2010, MonaLisa was diagnosed with Leukemia. Having gone through such a traumatic experience with no knowledge about the disease and lack of support with living conditions, she was eager to help and do more for herself and the community. So, that same year, while in remission, she formed an organization named CureQuest, Inc. This is an organization that is a resource for blood cancer survivors in their recovery stages. After diagnosis of the cancer, families are in distress about bills and how they are to pay for prescriptions. CureQuest, Inc gives families resources and information on how to relieve these burdens and press to regroup and LIVE!

MonaLisa is the mother of four boys. The third son passed away in 2005 at the age of 6 years old. MonaLisa was married for 13 years and has been a single parent for 12 years. Her son’s ages are 28, 22, and 10. The oldest serves in the Air force as an Air Traffic Controller, the second son is a senior at Texas State University, and the youngest is in 5^th grade.
