My Journey
More About Me
My mission in life is to empower on/offline communities. I currently work at Instagram as an Associate Brand Marketing Manager, where I focus on community engagement and representation in global campaigns. In my free time, I am a dedicated sleeper, East Bay SPCA volunteer and portrait photographer.
I began my career at Instagram as an intern in the summer of 2017. Prior to Instagram, I interned at Lucasfilm, thredUP and USC Annenberg. Previously, I have worked with many brands like Star Wars, thredUP and the NAACP Image Awards. My work has been featured in the Los Angeles Times, LA Weekly (1) (2), Refinery 29, Afropunk (1) (2), People, AdWeek, Blavity, and more. I’m a proud alumna of the University of Southern California c/o 2018, USC African American Cinema Society and Annenberg Inclusion Initiative.
During my days as a student, Los Angeles kept me close to directors, producers, and actors, and I was inspired to blog about my urban adventures. I’m proud to have a blog that has international viewership and I keep my thumb on all things tech & youth.
