Hello, love!
I’m an ambitious material girl obsessed with wellness, business, consumer culture, and the creator economy. I write from New York City, where I’m busy enjoying being young, gifted, and Black, oversharing online, and remembering that self-care is part of the business plan.
My career TLDR:
bounced from Google Marketing to YouTube creator strategy before getting my MBA from The Wharton School at The University of Pennsylvania.
I started and ran a premium bathrobe brand that collaborated with Rare Beauty & Bumble, and I’m the author of Too Smart for This: A Journal to Build Self-Trust and Stop Settling for Less Than You Deserve, published by Tarcher Books.
I’ve been a lifestyle influencer for 5 years, collaborating with 75+ brands across TikTok, Instagram, and YouTube, and was named by the American Influencer Council as a Trailblazer in the microinfluencer category.
