I am a music industry executive and the founder of Playtime Music, an independent record label, and Playtime Talent Group, a full-service brand management company. Formerly, I served as the Southeast Regional Promotion Director at Interscope Records, a Universal Music Group subsidiary. Through my ventures, I have successfully generated over six figures in revenue. I am committed to addressing and rectifying the cultural and economic challenges inherited from our ancestors. Many of our forebears endured forced labor and systemic oppression in a society built on their hard work. Today, despite economic hardships faced by many in our immediate families, we no longer need to accept unjust labor conditions, low wages, or discrimination based on gender, nationality, race, or religion. We have the power to forge a new path for ourselves and future generations. In my journey, prioritizing my faith and career, and rediscovering my true self, I have deconstructed outdated teachings and redefined what it means to be a young Black, fearless female entrepreneur, executive, wife-to-be, and mother. This transformation has led me to become a successful businesswoman.
