Alice's profile

'Ecila Mai' means 'I am Alice' spelled backwards. The name reminds the author to recognize different perspectives and to appreciate different points of view. She was born in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania and raised in Baltimore, Maryland. She has been writing poems all of her life. Her grandmother, Alice Carroll Griffin taught her to treasure her family, believe in God and to always "own your own home". Her mother, Hazel Lloyd Leslie taught her to think before you speak, pronounce your words correctly and read to gain knowledge. As a result of their influence, she graduated from the University of Maryland, College Park, married her true love, Eric (her dearly departed husband), raised a family, and owns her own home. She believes, in Christ, all things work together for good.
