She and her younger brother, Norris Jr, were born to Norris and Wanda Turman. Yet, while her professional career began in engineering, finance has grown to become her passion... inspiring a company dedicated to teaching financial literacy and concepts. She designed PYC as an entity that teaches and promotes engineering concepts in the financial arena, meshing her profession and passion with her personality. In September 2004, she received certification to teach personal finance and debt management from Universal Education endorsed by Central and Eastern Michigan Universities. In December 2006, she also received her MBA, with a concentration in Finance and Business Economics, from Wayne State University in Detroit, MI. LaWanda's community work officially began after receiving certification, with her initial workshop teaching on components of money management from a corporate perspective. Since then, she has worked with numerous people in the Detroit and Metro Detroit areas building and developing financial structures. Today, her company has grown to join forces with other organizations in conducting corporate financial analyses, regular workshops and classes for all types of members of the community. LaWanda and her beautiful son Nicholas currently reside in Clinton Township, Michigan.
