Along with spending fun time with her family, she had a natural talent as a hair designer. She was good with cutting hair and make-up. Her room in college was the local place to get a great "hair do". Her greatest attribute was helping others, whether it was spiritual advice, providing transportation, or as the saying goes, "giving the shirt off her back" if needed. Kennisha graduated from Oats Elementary and E. L. Furr High School. She attended Prairie View A&M College majoring in Information Technology. She became a member of Delta Sigma Theta Sorority, Inc.

She truly enjoyed teaching and giving educational direction to the students. She later accepted a position as Counselor at Texas Department of Criminal Justice in Houston and Beaumont. Within the past three months she decided, and was training to re-enter the teaching profession. The most joyous occasions for Kennisha were experiencing the birth of her son Jason in 2005.
