If you're new to business, entrepreneurship or you're a tech startup up, you'll want to download this free tool: http://bit.ly/EPiCTools then schedule a 30-minute consultation.

I have 21 years of combined classroom experience teaching business, marketing, communications and branding topics.

My passion includes intraneurship and entrepreneurial leadership and using media and marketing to do the most good for the most people. When not working on expansion initiatives for my company in the U.S., South Africa, and the Caribbean, I provide my clients with a brand-driven, comprehensive approach to establishing, operating, and growing a business. My areas of expertise are: marketing (branding, strategy, social media, content marketing, marketing analytics), communications (business, writing, editing, proofreading) and management. My entrepreneurial accomplishments have been highlighted in a number of publications including Chicago's 360° of Entertainment Heat, New York based, The Industry Cosign, Pink Ladders, The Chic Entrepreneur, American Express’ OPEN Forum ®, Inc.com, Investor’s Business Daily, All Biz Answers, BrandMakerNews, UpStart Smart, Fan Bridge and Black Enterprise magazine. I have even been quoted in publications like The Atlanta Journal-Constitution (Lifestyle) and USA Today (Business Travel).

I obtained a degree in Business Management from the University of Illinois at Chicago. My teaching certificate in business education was obtained from Clark-Altanta University. I hold a Branding and Integrated Marketing and a Strategic Marketing executive education certificate from the University of Southern California Marshall School of Business. I have 23 years of business experience working with corporate and nonprofit organizations as well as media and entertainment outfits in the U.S. London, Ontario, Cape Town, Johannesburg and Port of Spain.

Product & Personal Branding | Brand Management

My career began in entertainment branding where I worked to develop and promote recording artists, new music and branded products. Later, I managed nonprofit brand extensions for Grammy award-winning artists (I'll tell you who when we chat) and also taught branding and marketing workshops for entertainment professionals. I've since taught personal branding for Clayton State University, General Assembly (Atlanta), SEAC (Atlanta), Georgia Center for Nonprofits and the Black Doctoral Network Conference, among other entities. I currently serve as a mentor network advisor for New York University's Career Development Center. I actively coach young adults and adult professionals on increasing their "net worth," or value through personal branding. Focusing on developing essential skills and experience will help ensure success.

In September 2015, I facilitated a workshop titled, "How to Build an Entertainment Brand" at SEA Expo in South Africa. Watch the event recap here: http://bit.ly/SEAExpoIE

Other initiatives I have launched and managed include branded events in partnership with the Microsoft Store, The Coca-Cola Company and Emory University Goizueta Business School, for example.

Experience across 12 industries, including entertainment, nonprofit, professional services, government, media and, more recently, STEAM, gives me insight and perspective that will help you create distinctly different, valuable and salable brands.

Sometimes business owners just want to talk things through with someone who gets it. And now you can! I am a business marketing counselor and idea catalyst who is available to "ideate," i.e., discuss the intricacies of marketing, communications and branding for increased business development or sales.
