Notă biografică

"Welcome to Preppy Gyrl Country Club!" These were the words spoken to every person that walked into the bubblegum pink and white dorm room-inspired lipgloss boutique of Chicago! Those same words made their way to the cover of a book! Novels that edify, encourage, comfort, teach and warn. Meet the author and creator of Preppy Gyrl Country Club, LaToya N. Ausley. She is known for addressing the inner thoughts and private lives of Christian young ladies as they mature and transition into high school, college life and adulthood with a special emphasis on church, academic success, dating and love, virginity, lifestyle, and "shhh, don't tell anyone"...the prophetic gift in teens. LaToya N. Ausley is an African-American Teen and YA novelist. She is the wife of her college sweetheart, Donell Ausley and the mother of a young gentleman. She is a lover of God and has a heart for young ladies with hurting hearts and challenging backgrounds. It is her desire to see young ladies overcome obstacles, complete graduate degrees, have lucrative careers, enter healthy relationships, and be assured of their identity as Christians that love God with no shame. LaToya believes that campus living is tempting and can be a season of heightened sin. She ministers to the needs of young ladies using decision-making with raw themes as the styles of her literature. LaToya was born and raised in the Englewood neighborhood of Chicago. Professionally, she served in university administration within the Student Affairs department for 5 years. LaToya graduated valedictorian of her eighth grade and high school classes. She appeared on Chicago's Know Your Heritage, a televised academic competition for high school students. She also was awarded the Chicago Scholars award. In 2005, she received her B.A in Psychology /Clinical Counseling from Saint Xavier.
