Meet Tanerra Willis – A Registered Nurse, Published Author, and Champion for Young Leaders
Tanerra Willis is more than a certified pediatric nurse—she’s a purpose-driven leader who believes in dreaming big and doing the work to make it happen.

Growing up in Chester PA, an impoverished community plagued by violence, drugs, and many other systemic barriers, Tanerra understands the challenges and pressures teens face—but she also knows how powerful they are. That’s why she’s committed to showing young people what’s possible when they lead with purpose, confidence, and heart.
Additionally, Tanerra is the founder of The Amazing Corner, an online bookstore that supports over 35 self-published authors, helping voices from all walks of life reach readers who need to hear their stories. Married for nearly twenty years, she and her husband also run a debt-free real estate company, proving that with discipline and vision, anything is achievable.
Whether she’s speaking at schools, hosting community events, or sharing her journey on social media, Tanerra’s mission is clear: Grow the community. Collaborate with purpose. Connect people to what they need to succeed. She leads with transparency, resilience, and a deep passion for pulling others up—and she’s here to remind every teen that leadership starts now.
Your voice matters. Your ideas matter. You don’t have to wait to be great—you already are.
