She also, worked as a Financial Analyst for the Department of Defense Agency, managing funds for several government programs, providing budgetary guidance, financial policies and procedures, and maintaining/analyzing budget reports. 

 

She received her college degree in Accounting and Business Management and had desires of becoming a Certified Public Accountant. However, her focus changed in 2020, after the passing of her father from pancreatic cancer. She helped care for him from the time of his diagnosis and understands firsthand the great and comprehensive burden cancer can bear. Latia was compelled to help other families that have been impacted by the disease. As a result, the Curtis P. Crowner Foundation, Inc and the Oncology Spa by CPC was born.
