North Carolinian Zebony La Vie uses her unique insight and ability to provide literature that ministers to the heart, mind, and soul. She has worked with children and families for over eight years, focusing primarily on inner city and at-risk youth. As a tutor, mentor, and friend to the youth, she paid close attention to the challenges that they faced on a continual basis. She endeavoured to be a shoulder to lean on, offering advice whenever she could. Her writing reaches the youth of this day and time. It can be classified as very forward and direct; she faces their issues head on, instead of using the informational approach like so many others. Her work uses actual experiences and language that youth can relate to. Zebony La Vie believes that God granted her with the ability to reach a multifarious group of people. By providing her with the means and the educational background, she has been able to work with many different demographics. In 2006, she recieved a Bachelor of Science from Presbyterian College. Then in 2009, she achieved her Masters in Psychology from the University of Phoenix. Consequently, her educational background and experience enable her to combine „book smarts“ with her personal experience in order to achieve an authentic voice that speaks directly to multi-cultural youth. Zebony La Vie currently resides in Charlotte, NC with her husband of three years, and their adoring son.
