Meet Felicia Shante’

Felicia Shante’ story begins as proud military brat, growing up across two countries and five U.S. states, which gave her a unique perspective on life and the ability to connect with diverse groups of people. Now, she’s been married for over 30 years to her husband Jeff, and is the mother of two incredible daughters, Jasmin (and son-in-law Conner) and Jadyn. Felicia’s home is also shared with her two beloved fur babies, who never fail to brighten her day. 

When she’s not connecting with others through her work or serving her community, Felicia enjoys refueling by sending time with her family, tending to her garden, and indulging in her love for all genres of music.
