.as a creative soul she is T.Richard, a simple yet complex bleeding-soul who embodies
enough passions to last several lifetimes. She is a committed volunteer who loves to go
unnoticed, and supporter of several philanthropic efforts, especially those that focus on
affecting positively the lives of women, children, and the environment.

.as a professional, she is OluwaTosin Adegbola, Phd; a tenured associate professor. Her
academic backgrounds are in Public Relations, English Literature, Mass Communications
and Publishing with degrees and training from Kentucky State University, Howard University
and Columbia University. As a professor, she challenges her students to demand the best quality
of education they can, and to question complacency.

.as a researcher, her works and interests are primarily focused on women’s images and the
ideologies that lend themselves to better understanding societal relationships with women’s
images. In this particular regard her creative soul and academic being coexist seamlessly.

.a perpetual workaholic, T.Richard fondly and jokingly notes that although she is proud
of her awards, she is reminded by her dogs who endlessly tolerate her, that she could
always be doing more. She hopes to make them proud some day!
