Black Women Manifesting Greatness Through Education: The Detroit Anthology is a collection of essays that shines a light on the resilience, strength, and educational triumphs of 21 Black women who graduated from Detroit's historically challenged public school system. This anthology is not just a narrative of struggle and adversity; it is a testament to the power of education, hard work, belief in oneself, and faith in shaping destinies.

Toshalyn brings over 18 years of diverse experience, with 14 of them in the automotive industry. Her forward-thinking, team-oriented approach reflects her deep commitment to contributing to and uplifting her community. From her early days at Hubert Elementary School in Detroit, where she penned her first play, to her academic and professional challenges and triumphs, Toshalyn's love for writing and storytelling has been the constant thread weaving through her life's tapestry. Amidst the trials and triumphs of her career and personal life, Toshalyn's role as a mother has remained paramount.
