Her path to success is marked by resilience: surviving domestic violence, enduring an unjust conviction, and emerging stronger with a vision to inspire change.

April’s accomplishments extend beyond entertainment. Her educational background, including a dual associate degree in criminal justice and sociology from Georgia Military College and a bachelor’s degree in criminal justice from Augusta University, underscores her deep understanding of social justice and advocacy.

A proud mother of four and grandmother of one, April balances her family life with her trailblazing career. Her twin teenage sons, Joshua and Jordan, along with her adult children, Jaden and Jerzey, and grandson, Jream, inspire her daily.

April Paulk is a visionary leader, proving that success is not defined by one’s past but by the courage to transform adversity into action. Her story is a masterclass in resilience, creativity, and unapologetic ambition, urging us all to pursue our dreams with unrelenting passion.
