“I am pleased to partner with the Larita Academy because: I know the power of having someone say, “I believe in you, I believe you can, and I have some of what you may need to get there!”. Those are life-changing, world altering words. That is what the Larita Academy is saying to young people who are prepared to put themselves out there and take a chance on themselves. I am thrilled to be a part of it."
