Natalie Ellington began her career as a file clerk at Motown Industries in Detroit, Michigan. She stayed with the company through their migration to California and long enough to become West Coast Director of Professional Activities. Today, Dr. Ellington is an international teacher, speaker, and author who has now committed her life to mentoring and supporting young ladies, especially those aged out of the foster care system.

She does this primarily through Eileen & Callie’s Place, which is a non-profit organization that empowers, educates and coaches young women aged out of the foster care system to utilize life skills and community resources to support their ability to sustain an independent lifestyle.
