Dee Goins was born and raised in Southern California. A mother of three, she has been blessed with an additional 13 children through foster care, step-parenting, and as a godparent. Dee's faith has been a guiding light throughout her life, especially during her many years of providing nourishment and support to young people. Her grandchildren are the joy of her life, and she delights in spoiling them and sending them home "rotten." Dee's professional journey began with a role in the County of Riverside, where she worked for 8 years before her entrepreneurial spirit took flight. In 1999, she founded True Green Cleaning as a family business, which grew to become one of the Inland Empire's premier property maintenance firms. In 2009, Dee was elected President of the Riverside Chapter of the Southern California Black Chamber of Commerce, later assuming the role of Vice President. In this capacity, she finds fulfillment in assisting minorities and small businesses in navigating the complex!
