I am thrilled to announce that I am spending this summer as a Development & Community Events Intern for the American Heart Association ! ❤️ A huge thank you to my hiring manager, Executive Director Jaylyn Brown ,for this opportunity. As a fellow Hampton University Pirate, she has already been an incredible mentor. During the Spring Semester 2026 we had the privilege of working together to bring my platform, Hearts of Gold, to life at Hampton, and I cannot wait to continue learning from her leadership this summer! I am also incredibly excited to collaborate with and learn from an amazing team, including Laura Boone Bynum , Audry Dubon and Briana Ricks, MPH who bring so much passion and expertise to every project. Here’s to a summer of impact and growth! ❤️ #AmericanHeartAssociation #InternsofImpact #HamptonUniversity #Internship2026

Worked my 1st Music Video with Chris Brown🔥 - I graduated college in 2024 with BA Advertising/PR, minor in Business Marketing. My Journey is non traditional I started working in entertainment/marketing while I was in school. I got my “1st Big Girl Job” in corporate right out of school, that didn’t work out. I’m a firm believer in not compromising what my dreams are for anyone, these 2 years I have been struggling completely I can’t find a reliable job but within this season I’m still working in my passion which is in the industry, yes week to week I may not know where my next check is coming from and I’m still applying to full time roles. And If you would have told me 5-10 yrs ago that my first Big Music video in Production would be working with #ChrisBrown #forthemoment ahead of his #ChrisandUshertour 🥹🔥🥂 as a Production Assistant and that MY NAME would be in the credits. We were up for a total of 16-18hrs on set. I don’t know what I would have said but I do know this God makes no mistakes, I had a detour for a reason that’s what being in your 20s is all about. I want to extend a huge thank you to Tiffany Black, BA , Bryan Garcia and the whole AD team and Production team for this opportunity 🥂🎬 #liveproduction #musicindustry #entertainment

Sharing my story means a lot and Ruby Zamora made another opportunity to do so very special. #crcsurvivor 💙

https://lnkd.in/eRKu69Pd The just released "Animation's New Wave" report from YouTube confirms what's been evident for a minute: major studios have lost the pulse on animation and independent creators have filled the vacuum. Hazbin Hotel started on YouTube and got picked up by Amazon. The Amazing Digital Circus is one of the most-watched animated properties on the planet. Neither came from a major studio. Animation is one of the most powerful storytelling mediums on earth. It's how cultures pass stories to children. It's how franchises are born. And it's a $430 billion global industry, growing fast, driven by streaming, and increasingly shaped by audience demand for representation. Black audiences are among the most passionate animation consumers on the planet. The audience is ready. The distribution is there. The cost compression from AI has sped up. What's missing is the engine. So, who’s building the infrastructure to power the next wave of culturally authentic, AI-accelerated animated IP at indie budgets with studio quality? The platform that compresses production timelines, protects creator IP, and unlocks the 1.4 billion people in the global diaspora who have never seen their stories animated at scale. That's a market to go after. And somebody's about to own it…. #Animation #AI #CreatorEconomy #YouTube #Entertainment #Startup #staytuned

Excited to offer words to an organization whose generosity changed my life. This will be a full circle moment for me. If you are in the Richmond area, please attend. Please donate if you are able.

The AI Hackathon that Soni Ede and I co-organized in honor of Women's History Month was a full-on smash hit! All credit goes to the incomparable King Willonius — AI storyteller, cultural innovator, comedian, musician, and one of TIME's Most Influential People in AI — who led 45 women of color on a deep, inspiring journey into the world of artificial intelligence. We explored how to use Claude AI in our professional, business, and personal lives. Then we got creative with OpenArt.AI (@ openart.ai thank you for the credits! 🙌🏾) to make original short-form content. The day wrapped with small teams showcasing what they'd created. King Willonius was recently named to Ebony's 2025 Power 100 and after spending a day learning from him, it's easy to see why. His guidance, enthusiasm, and extreme patience made all the difference. If you're not already following the organization he co-leads, AI and The Culture, please start. Their mission is to ensure marginalized communities have access to AI tools and education. The future is here and everyone deserves a seat at the table! 🔗 https://lnkd.in/gZmaMmF7 #KingWillonius #AIandTheCulture #WomensHistoryMonth #SoniGurlPR #RoseCathPink #AIHackathon

Honored to share that For The Fellas is a 2026 Webby Honoree for General Video & Film – Interview or Talk Show....FOR THE THIRD YEAR IN A ROW. 🏆 As a Creator, Host, and Co-EP, it means a lot to be part of a platform that prioritizes real conversations, vulnerability, and growth especially for Black men, who don’t always have spaces like this. Truly appreciate my Co-EP Brittiany Cierra Taylor for helping me build BET's #1 digital franchise and Ashley Grayson for giving us the opportunity from the start.
