She made history as the youngest cast member ever to join The Real Housewives franchise, earning her spot on Bravo’s The Real Housewives of Potomac at just 27 years old. Before stepping into the spotlight, life wasn’t easy—she balanced multiple jobs while pursuing her education at the University of Maryland, all to help support her younger siblings and single mother. Working as a bartender during college was just one of the many roles she juggled with determination. Along the way, she found love with Michael Darby, a successful real-estate millionaire who happens to be 29 years her senior. Their relationship brought new responsibilities, as she embraced the role of step-mother to his children. Since then, the couple has grown their family together, welcoming their first son, Dean, in July 2019, followed by their second son, Dylan, in March 2021. As a cast member, she continues to share her journey with authenticity, balancing motherhood, marriage, and her place in the Real Housewives legacy.
Back in 2011, she took home the crown at the Miss District of Columbia pageant, marking a major milestone in her journey. After that exciting achievement, she decided to venture into the world of entrepreneurship and opened a restaurant in Arlington, Virginia—her name became synonymous with success when she launched Oz, a place that quickly gained attention. She really made a name for herself, balancing her public presence with a passion for hospitality. Over time, she continued to build on her accomplishments, and her story remains an inspiring one.
