Hi,

I’m a nationally published journalist, pre-accelerator coordinator, and business strategist with a deep passion for innovation, digital storytelling, and affirming others' dreams.

​

Over the years, my career journey has allowed me to wear many hats—writer, marketing strategist, mentor, and advocate—all of which have shaped my mission to drive change and create opportunities that drive economic growth for underrepresented communities.

​

As a journalist, I’ve written for leading publications such as The Nation, Business Insider, Built In, Essence GU, The American City Business Journals, and more. My work spans business, tech, culture, politics, fashion, and entertainment, with a keen focus on diversity, equity, and inclusion in the startup ecosystem.

​

As Program Coordinator for the HBCU Founders Initiative (HBCUFI), I organize the largest HBCU-centered pre-accelerator in the nation, supporting over 200 students and alumni to launch and scale tech startups annually.

​

In 2025 and onward, I'm excited to work with individuals with big dreams who are ready to elevate their digital brands, grow their businesses, or refine their narratives.

 

Whether you’re a professional seeking to develop a personal brand, a startup founder, or a serial entrepreneur,  I’ll work with you to build a brand that’s authentic, engaging, and positioned for success.

 

Let’s turn your bold ideas into something unforgettable—and have some fun while we’re at it!
