Motherless at 10. Sexually exploited at 15. Drug dealer at 17. Gang raped at 18. Drawing herself up by her bootstraps was her only option. Kimberly Miles worked her way up the ladder of corporate sales only to discover another travesty: male supervisors stalking female underlings.

Now, as the owner of her own company which bills millions annually, she's set up the B.E.A.S.H.E.R.O Foundation, which seeks to help sexually-exploited teenage girls get off the streets of Las Vegas, teach them a viable skill and see they become independent members of society. Here is her story on how she went from a zero to a SHERO!

When it comes to relationships, there exist four states: you're either trying to get in one, out of one, maintain one, or get over one. Brooklynite, Zay Shero Harrison is stuck in the state of trying to get over one. Her three girlfriends hold down the other three. AMERICAN SHERO is next wave feminism, humor, politically incorrect, and an honest look at the current state of young love in America. SHERO is the face of what it looks like, feels like, and acts like, as well as the heroic stance one assumes when daring to undertake, or even avoid such relations. Highly imaginative, with ingenious "How To" self-help manuals built into its narrative, AMERICAN SHERO is one very fresh, original, edgy, cinematic, spiritual, and definitely unprecedented body of work. Keywords: Edgy, Loving, Friendship, Heroic, Commitment, Feminist, Sarcastic, Humorous, Political, Spiritual.
