Ms. Tajuba comes from a household where she was raised by seven strong black women (grandmother, aunts, sister, and mother) who have had a major influence on her decisions to focus on consistently improving one self and taking up the challenge that there is more to life than living in Wichita. Known for following the beat of her own drum, Ms. Tajuba always tried to reinvent herself and utilize her talents in the best way possible. This helped her in not only the field of Fine Arts, but in Athletics, Social Studies, Community Service, and Government.
