Born and raised in Detroit, Raven attended Cody High School prior to the University of Findlay, where she would earn a degree in Criminal Justice. While competing for the Findlay Oilers, Raven set school records in both the 300 meters and 60-meter hurdles, in addition to bringing home nine All-American honors and eight GLIAC conference championships. In her senior season, Raven claimed the biggest title in the land, the 60-meter DII National Championship. Raven now trains with Elite Athletes International, and was a semi-finalist at the 2016 Olympic Trials in Eugene, Oregon.

Off the track, Raven seeks to be as inspiring to those around her as she is on the track, stating, "I work at a group home where I inspire teenagers to go for what they believe in. These young ladies have been in and out of the system and I am glad to be there for them when they need a shoulder to cry on." She has had a firm support group of family and fans that have given her the opportunity to grow in the sport, no matter where the next step takes her, saying, "When one door closes two more open. If you have a passion or a desire to do something, do it. You will never know whether a challenge is easy or hard unless you challenge yourself, and I am always up for a challenge."

When her time on the track is through, Raven hopes to put her Criminal Justice degree to good use, noting, "I would love to be a Probation Officer."
