About Me

I am a strategic marketing and communications leader with 20+ years of experience elevating cultural institutions, nonprofit missions, and national brands. My work centers on storytelling that drives visibility, builds community, influences public engagement, and advances mission-based goals.

Professional, I lead multi-channel marketing campaigns, partnership activations, and digital communications at the Smithsonian's National Museum of African American History and Culture, where I connect broad audiences to programs, exhibitions, and cultural moments through impactful content and partnership strategy.

I also create platforms that uplift Black women's voices and creative careers through The Everyday Lemonade and my photography work — blending advocacy, visibility, and community storytelling to amplify under-represented narratives.

My core strengths include:

  • Strategic communications and brand messaging
  • Community engagement and partnership development
  • Influencer and digital campaign strategy
  • Content creation across social, written, and visual formats
  • Sponsorship activation and fundraising support

I am passionate about creative work that bridges communities and mission-driven organizations to meaningful engagement and measurable impact.
