A solopreneur, business professional, and art collector

My introduction to the art world began during my childhood, in large part to my parents. They were actively involved, selling limited and open edition prints to friends, peers, and enthusiasts. We would travel to shows all along the East Coast seeing waves of visitors walking around and artists selling their work. Growing up in a household filled with Black art exposed me to the limitless creativity that people who looked like me possessed. Observing how my parents operated and experiencing firsthand the positivity of Black art ignited a desire within me to carry forward the legacy they started.

From a professional standpoint, my background consists of working in the consumer space for reputable companies where I focused on improving relationships between those companies and their customers. I have also worked in the art space with an established New York Gallery as an associate contributing to business strategy and operations.

Educationally, I received my MBA from Boston University, Questrom School of Business with a focus on Social Impact and Strategy and my BA in Business Administration from Morehouse College.
