Symone Fairchild, Founder of EyeOnDV

Symone Fairchild, hails from the Washington D.C. area and was raised in the martial arts, obtaining a 2nd degree black belt in Northern Shaolin Kung-Fu. She has an entrepreneurial spirit coursing through her veins which affords her a “pick yourself up by the bootstraps” type of tenacity. She is a daughter of God, a single mom to the most awesome and exuberant little boy on the face of the planet, and a screenwriter. What has captured her heart though, aside from God and her son, is acting. She now knows that it is from acting as a platform and surviving domestic violence that God has meant her to help and love others. She has braved the terrifying and constant storms of healing and reinventing, emotional rollercoasters, building a foundation for life for she and her son from absolutely nothing, being shocked by the archaic and emotionally/mentally abusive environment of the “justice system”, and navigating other subtle abuses in her life. Now that her mission is clear, she will never stop fighting for others and never stop fighting for her son.
