Meet TheWrightFamily

I started out as a little girl from a small town with big hopes and bigger dreams. Early on I knew that my light shined bright! I always felt like I had something to offer the world! I had to go and see what it was! I have always loved to write and would often receive awards for my writing in school. I was also the Spelling Bee champ as far back as I can remember. I competed and won at the District,County, State,Regional and National levels. I was involved in Performing Arts and I loved to perform.

Marriage

My husband,Armond and I met when I was 9 and he was 11. We became the best of friends as children and grew up creating an irreplaceable bond that we still have. He was my first love and I was his. Although we grew up and went our separate ways in life to find ourselves,we always kept in touch. We were always each other’s confidante and best friend. We laughed, we cried,we grew and eventually we were married.We are now married with the family that we talked about as children. I am grateful everyday that life bought us together and we have been in love for over 30 years. I actually married my best friend.

Children

My children mean everything to me! When I became a mom, I put all of my dreams on the shelf. I decided the next on-stage play that I was starring in was motherhood! I knew the world would be watching! I decided to give it my all and be great at it! My children became my world and didn’t have time to do anything else but pour into them. Four single births and a set of twins later, my hopes and dreams started to resurface. The fire inside me has never gone out. It is still a flame. The children grew up learning about and following the Arts. Meanwhile they were also discovering their passions. The gift of Art has passed to another generation.They too are pursuing their careers and securing their places as actors and models. We are all signed to MJI,Inc as the Belo-Wright family. We work on family projects together. Individually they are Imani(22),Dekhari(18),Aliyah(12),Ahmari (11),Kaisan and Kaidon(5). They all have a passion and desire and it shows in their strong work ethic.They are all climbing a ladder of success.

Career

In my life, I have owned five businesses. I am a Doula,

Notary,Loan Signing Agent,Sonographer, I make candles,and perfume from essential oils. I have received a Degree in Medical Office,a certificate in Phlebotomy,and Cosmetology. I have done a lot of different things. I always tell people “No one can ever take away the knowledge so it’s ok to learn different things. You will always have something to teach.”

Currently I am a Actor, Writer,and a Model. Just this year I have received credit from a part in an upcoming movie! I played an inmate. It was exciting! I worked with a lot of great people. I also played a wedding guest in a film this year. I was just asked to star in a film based on real life and I am ecstatic! My family and I are also working on an International shoe project! I have a Vegan meal idea book coming out called I’m NOT your ordinary Vegan! I am a Vegan along with my family. Along this journey, I decided to journal and record because it was tough. I thought if it’s tough for me, then it must be tough for other people trying to transition to plant based or Vegan eating. In my book, I give you recipe ideas and talk about the ups and downs of the journey! It was a life changer for me for health reasons and a cleaner lifestyle! I just want people to know that you can do it! It can be easy and delicious!

Everything that I decided that I want to be as a child is now coming true! I have always held on to my dreams and I knew one day they would manifest.

I dedicate all of my success to my late mother Cassandra, who always told me I was amazing! I know she would be very proud!
