MEET OUR FOUNDER
Tennesha Lee is a wife, a mother of two, a serial entrepreneur, and a military veteran with a deep passion for travel, adventure, fashion, fitness, and fun. New Orleans born and Kenner, LA raised, in what she refers to as "the village" by her mother, grandmother, aunts, uncles, and neighbors. Tennesha comes from very humble beginnings and was faced with adversity at every turn, which taught her the art of resilience. Despite experiencing teenage pregnancy and dropping out of high school in the 10th grade, she went on to become a decorated military officer, a college graduate, and a successful entrepreneur. In 2020, during the COVID lockdown, she was introduced to golf by a friend. This sparked her search for a community of women with a shared passion for the sport. However, Tennesha found limited options for a diverse golf group and was even kicked out of one of the clubs. As a result of this experience, Golden Goddess Golf Group Inc. was born. This is a welcoming community, a safe, and inclusive environment for women and girls of color from various backgrounds to learn and excel in golf. Golden Goddess Golf Group Inc. is committed to empowering through education, fostering exposure, creating opportunities, and inspiring women to embrace the game. Our goal is to ensure that everyone feels welcomed and empowered.
