Her mother worked for a Toy Factory which provided special moments between mother and children --when Mom wasn't worn out from work at the factory. Ramona's first introduction to the theater was when her mother stayed home full-time after layoffs. Her Mom spread a blanket on the floor and told her and her siblings' stories...stories they would later perform in the basement on a makeshift stage behind a rolled up bamboo curtain. Her father was a trucker who fell upon hard times during union strikes. Her Solo Show "On My Own", from her Maternal Dreamer Series is based on these events. Eventually, she and her siblings were placed in New York's foster care system. The school was a safe haven for her where she scored high grades and eventually earned acceptance to Cornell University where she studied Human Development and Family Studies. There she met her husband-to-be, Tony King during her first college stage performance of Godspell. They married and moved to New Mexico where she continued to perform live theater at the University of New Mexico of which included Antigone in South Africa (Adaptation of Sophocles Play), Boesman and Lena by Athol Fugard, and Young Gifted and Black by Lorraine Hansberry. After giving birth to her first child she began her solo performance career on stage as Storyteller and Personal Griot. Her two son's were born soon after. In 1999 she performed at the White House for the Annual Easter at the White House Event. She's performed across the country sometimes with a child strapped to her back on school stages, in conferences, and festivals. She's come full circle to continue her acting career in film and television.
