Senika Shields-Levias is an advocate who has committed herself by way of Registered Nurse, Realtor and Founder of Just Us MA’s – The A’Tierra Westbrook Project; a grass roots non-profit organization whose mission is to provide preventative and supportive services to victims of violence and their surrounding communities.
Senika has been keenly interested in Real Estate since she was a young child. Her parents own a small portfolio of properties in their community and taught her the basics of investing at an early age. She is determined to continue building on this foundation by further educating herself in the industry of Real Estate. Senika earned an Associate Degree in Nursing in 2010 from Solano Community College and obtained her Real Estate license in 2017.
She is currently employed as a RN Case Manager in Outside Utilization at Kaiser Permanente in addition to actively practicing Real Estate as an agent in a small, minority owned brokerage. Originally from the Bay Area, Senika moved to Southern California three years ago after being directly affected by senseless gun violence; her 21-year old daughter was murdered in August of 2015. Removing herself from the environment that caused the trauma has allowed her to make significant strides toward healing as well as made her more aware of the underlying problems in our communities that perpetuate violence.
As a survivor, she has vowed in her daughter’s honor, to seek out ways to combine her education as a nurse, realtor and non-profit founder to make a lasting impact on her community and the lives of others. Senika is hopeful that an elite educational experience like the Ross Minority Program in Real Estate will assist in putting the pieces of the puzzle together.
Senika’s most treasured role is mother to her remaining child, a 16-year old son who stands 6’4 and is the light of her life. She is reveling in the exciting journey of a student-athlete and finds pure joy in watching her son play basketball at the high school level.
