I’m a communications designer, curious creative, and humanistic thinker originally from Alabama.
I am the creator of the CFBS Podcast, which explores the intersectionality of the experience of millennial women of the African Diaspora millennial. Topics include the discovery of a woman’s own sexuality and sexual expression through pop culture and society (i.e. religion, culture, etc.).
I’ve studied in Alabama (University of Alabama, December 2016), California, and New York (Pratt Institute, May 2020), and have traveled to Japan and throughout the United States.
I have enjoyed partnerships involving brand identity and designing for social impact and media. Some of the most interesting projects to me have promoted diversity, education, and human-centered concepts (e.g., sexuality, sociology, interactions, women, minorities, and cultures around the world).

After taking a seminar course that combined critical analysis and artistic discussion, I created a magazine for the final project. I also created a card game that can be used to enhance face-to-face communication between people instead of using tech to communicate with others.

During one of grad school classes, I explored the idea of using Duolingo as a form of language and culture preservation. Before then, I had used Duolingo to preserve my French and Spanish skills. Although, I followed most of interactions of Duolingo, I decided to add a congratulations and costume page for Duo (Duolingo’s owl mascot).
