Biography of Lanisha porter


Picture
Lanisha Porter, now 22 years of age, is a recent graduate of the private liberal arts institution--Manhattanville College, located in New York. Her disciplines of Political Science and Philosophy with a minor in Women’s Studies has lent to Lanisha’s passion as an enthusiast for women empowerment, social harmony and educational enrichment. Though very young, Lanisha has very informed insights about life and how one should lead a life of virtue. She believes that one must do meaningful work to live a meaningful life. Her life within itself is a confluence of experiences driving her to live a purposeful life that will not only serve herself, but others.

Keeping true to a philosophy that resonates well with her soul, Porter serves her community through multiple ventures. Her first effort to empower and give back is through her literature which is witnessed in the writing of her first book, “Things I Never Talk About.” More notable efforts also include her philanthropy. Lanisha Porter alongside former classmate and best friend,Jason Jewell, started the "Jewell-Porter Book Scholarship" which funds the book expenses of a promising high school senior headed to college. It is also not unlikely to see her hosting empowerment events and speaking by invitation at community summits and seminars.

Lanisha is also a graduate of Louisville Central High School Academy. Porter has future aspirations of opening an Empowerment Center for young women within the confines of Downtown Louisville as well as becoming a practicing entertainment lawyer. As a former Central Stingette, Lanisha has a spirit for dance and music of all genres.  

She also proudly serves as the director of "Urban Girls Rock!"​ which is a 10-week summer mentoring program for girls aging between 11-17 years old. This program promotes core values central to developing holistic and socially conscious young women that can be measured in academic success, civic engagement and personal conduct. UGR! meets twice per week and as the director, Porter creates the curriculum, advertises and markets the program, plans interactive activities, books the guest speakers and leads the classes which is predicated on her book "Things I Never Talk About." This program is housed at St. Stephen Baptist Church (Lou. KY) under the leadership of Senior Pastor, Rev. Dr. Kevin W. Cosby where Lanisha has been a devout member over the years. 
 
As a motivational speaker Lanisha regularly enjoys engaging youth and pushing them to believe that they hold the power to create their personal destiny. She often encourages those around her to question their life and the foundation it is built on. In all ways, Lanisha Porter defines what it means when she says she is an ambassador for empowerment.

​"As an insider who knows first hand the struggles of growing up with limited means and tough circumstances, through my own experiences I motivate youth to awaken their greatness despite their beginnings or situations. My book, "Things I Never Talk About", affords me the experience to speak at youth fairs, psychiatric hospitals, education summits, high school assemblies and community gatherings."
-Lanisha Porter
