WHO AM I?

what cool things could people build with fewer barriers to access?



that's the question all of my work attempts to answer. amplifying diverse voices since before it was cool, my thesis is that joy is vital, and I work towards a media landscape where multifaceted, multicultural people control our own narratives. Oprah and Shonda Rhimes are my mentors in my head (but tell them to call me if you know them IRL.)



The Garden Grant





I model good behavior for bigger funders. On its face, TGG is an arts grant that encourages experimental projects by diverse creatives. behind the scenes, we explore accessibility in the philanthropic world and investing in underrepresented artists without requiring them to trade trauma for support.

belladonna magazine





a celebration of women who are both beautiful and deadly, belladonna is what an ethical fashion publication looks like. It's also the first Black woman-owned print fashion magazine in US markets in years.

MaacahEats





a chef's playground. as a guest, you bring an open mind and an empty stomach. as your host, I facilitate complex conversations and platform diverse chefs to present a food experience that will change your world. it's not even a little casual.
