Shontel Greene

Greene’s mother was a nurse addicted to intravenous use of drugs which made her sick and later died of AIDS. Greene faced a difficult and traumatic time at the age of 14 following the death of her mother. Unable to pay her school fees and a $3,000 eviction notice, Greene opted for the doping game to raise money for her family needs. Her drug deal exposed her to a lot of dangers including being kidnapped, robbed and arrested multiple times and was shot on one occasion.[3] Later, she realised the importance of education and went back to school earning two master’s degrees and a doctorate degree in nursing.[4] She established multiple businesses including Nursez R Us, a healthcare facility in Maryland.[5]
