Dr. Ranyel L. Trent has always had a deep passion to serve others. As a child, she was often caught catering to the needs of her cabbage patch kids, and now as an adult she has developed that passion into a mission to secure our future through education, salvation, and mentorship.

Dr. Ranyel serves the community in a plethora of ways. Academically, she is the Guidance Counselor at Southwest Louisiana Charter Academy as well as a member of the campus’ leadership teams. She is the founder of Diamondz N-D Ruff Elite Socialites which is a non-profit organization geared to promoting sisterhood, service, and scholarship. She, along with other members of DNDR, raised awareness to social causes through charitable events such as Strike Out Cancer, Walk All Over Aids, and Tackle Domestic Violence, with proceeds from all events going to local charities. Through DNDR, Min. Ranyel has mentored young ladies while equipping them with life lessons on etiquette, self-esteem, and college/career readiness.

And spiritually, Dr. Ranyel preaches a practical Word to a practical world. She is the author of several Christian self-help books such as “The Jewels of His Crown,” “Girlfriend, God Don’t Need Your Help” and "Girlfriend, You're Still Winning.” She, along with her husband Min. Kenneth Trent, are the CEO’s of Kingdom Life Enterprises, LLC which is comprised of Kingdom Life Publishing, Kingdom Life Entertainment, and Kingdom Life Graphix. Together they reside in Sulphur, LA with their five children Nevaeh, Kristian, Kayden, Avia, and Jameson.

Dr. Ranyel L. Trent wholeheartedly accepts the charge of Paul when he wrote, “I have become all things to all people so that by all possible means I might save some.”
