ABOUT THE AUTHOR - Dr. Regina A. Johnson Naval Officer, Public Speaker, Life Coach, Author, Self-Publisher, Little Doo-Doo: A Better Tomorrow visionary and CEO/Owner/Founder of EOJ Publishing and Bookgasm Store. Regina, originally from Brazil, holds a Doctorate in Ministry from the Gordon-Conwell Theological Seminary in Hamilton, Massachusetts. She earned a master's degree in Counseling Psychology & Addictions at Cambridge College in Massachusetts. Regina has always viewed challenges as opportunities. Since coming to this country more than 30 years ago, she used her talents to serve the community in multiple areas, including working as a mental health and substance abuse counselor. She considers it a privilege to be in a land that not only allows but encourages her to have a voice. She understands we are a nation bound not by race or religion, but by the shared values of freedom, liberty, and equality. In becoming a United States citizen, Regina learned that throughout our history, the U.S welcomed newcomers from around the world. Immigrants helped shape and define the country we know today. Their contributions have preserved our legacy as a land of freedom and opportunity. Regina wanted to get involved on a deeper level to ensure that America remains free and prosperous. It was that gratitude and desire to give back that motivated Regina to join the U.S. Navy, where she currently serves as an active duty chaplain. While the Navy is her vocation, her passion is writing. Sparked by the birth of her daughter Orlanda -- most known as Little Doo-Doo -- Regina uses her daughter's curiosity, behavior, and questions as inspiration in writing children's stories. Her civic action and public service are a validation of John F. Kennedy's historic words. "Ask not what your country can do for you - ask what you can do for your country." Professional book editor with the ability to clarify language and culture. Naira's professionalism, dedication, and knowledge is appreciated. She illustrated two of my children's books and her work is beyond any expectations. Naira indeed is a true artist. She is able to connect her artistic abilities with the author's vision and desires.
