My name is Taliyah Ziona Brown, and on April 24, 2023 I officially turned 18 years old.
I was born April 24, 2005 at 4:16pm to Tanya Wiley-Brown and Dorrel Brown.
I feel so blessed to have both of my parents to lead, guide and teach me right from wrong.
When I was a baby, I was homeschooled, and then my parents decided to let me go to Messiah Moravian Pre-School.
When I left Messiah, I enrolled at Jefferson Elementary School, and when I graduated to middle school, I was fortunate enough to be able to attend Jefferson Middle School, which was very close to my home.
I am now a 9th grader at Mount Tabor High School. It seems like the years are now moving much faster, and I will soon be in the 10th grade. I am already looking at colleges and universities, because when I grow up I want to either become a veterinarian or a neurosurgeon.
I love being with my dog and my friends. I enjoy designing and decorating; I guess I inherited my creativity from both my parents sides of the family. My favorite color is blue and my favorite number is 13. Many people are superstitious, and believe that the number 13 is bad luck. But my parents taught me not to believe in luck. I believe in blessings – and I have read that the number 13 means “spiritual birth”.
Believe passionately in what you do, and never knowingly compromise your standards and values. Act like a true professional, aiming for true excellence, and the money will follow.”
My family is my life, and everything else comes second as far as what’s important to me.
Life is what you make it. So why not make it a beautiful one full of happiness and joy.
Love the life you live. Live the life you love!

As you grow up, make sure you have more dreams than memories, more opportunities than chances, and more friends than acquaintances.
Thinking of you on your birthday, and wishing you all the best! I hope it is as fantastic as you are!
