Dr. Winfrey is a Hip Hop scholar, and holds a doctorate degree in Clinical Psychology. She has a ” have a lifelong relationship with the Hip Hop culture” She grew up in a  racially mixed town outside of Louisville, Kentucky and “received messages from all sides that rap was BAD. This always hurt me, because I loved the culture so much, and I wanted the rest of America to recognize the genius of it. I made a vow early on in my high school career, to speak out about the positive aspects of rap music, which I did in the classroom, and at the church I grew up in, Gilt Edge Baptist Church. “

H.Y.P.E. was born out of her lifelong love of Hip Hop, and desire to uplift Black youth. “It has been an honor and a blessing to talk to professionals about H.Y.P.E., and even more so to work with youth using the H.Y.P.E. curriculum. The overwhelmingly positive feedback I have received has been so encouraging, and it is my ultimate goal that H.Y.P.E. will be implemented everywhere there are Black youth whose voices need to be heard. ”
