IL, USBorn in the south suburbs of Chicago, Alicia T. Bowens learned the meaning of perseverance at a very young age. Although she was an honor student and star athlete, Alicia became a teenage mother during her sophomore year of high school at the age of fifteen. However, she didn't let having a child at such a young age stop her. Alicia kept up with her classwork while she was out, and returned to school, going on to graduate on time with her peers in 1997.
Immediately after high school, Alicia went on to attend the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign, taking her then three-year old son with her. In 2001, she graduated, and soon after obtained a position in the IT industry. In 2005, Alicia went on to obtain her Masters degree in Business Administration and Masters in Information Systems Management from Keller Graduate School.
Alicia is an active member of the National Black MBA Association, Chicago Chapter, having served on the Executive Board and Marketing & Communications Committee from 2006-2010. She also participated in the Leaders Of Tomorrow (LOT) program, a mentoring program for high school students. Alicia has also been involved in other teen mentoring programs, such as The Legacy Initiative and Y.Our Time Is Now (YTIN), and has done multiple speaking engagements at area high schools on college and career planning, as well as sharing her experiences of being a teenage mother. An active member at New Faith Baptist Church International in Matteson, IL, Alicia is the chair of the IT Ministry, and Vice President of Public Relations of their newly chartered Toastmaster's club.
In 2010, Alicia became a certified life coach. As a certified life coach, it is her desire to share her experiences - both successes and failures - in an effort to empower others to achieve their goals despite the obstacles that may present themselves in life. She brought those beliefs to the airwaves from 2011-2012, when she partnered with a close friend to create and co-host "The L.O.V.E. Perspective" radio show, which focuses on encouraging and inspiring others to live Lives Of Vision & Empowerment. Alicia believes that if you have a vision for your life, God has already instilled within you the skills and abilities that you need in order to make that vision a reality.
