You have a diverse range of roles from finance to media and entertainment. How did you navigate these different career paths, and what drives your passion across these fields?  

 

The key to navigating is to prioritize and commit to each path evenly.  My career in finance is flexible which allows me to time and space to accomplish my other career ventures.

What drives my passion across these fields is the opportunity to make a difference, whether it's through financial strategies that support business growth or through storytelling that inspires, educates, and entertains audiences. I thrive on the diversity of experiences and perspectives that each role brings, constantly challenging myself to adapt, innovate, and push boundaries. Ultimately, my passion lies in the pursuit of excellence, creativity, and impact. I am driven by the belief that each career path, no matter how different, has the potential to contribute something valuable to the world and to fulfill my own personal and professional growth.

As the editor-in-chief of Sexy Is Not A Size Magazine, you've created a platform focused on body positivity and self-acceptance. What inspired you to start this magazine, and what impact do you hope it will have on its readers?

 

As the editor-in-chief of Sexy Is Not A Size Magazine, my passion for celebrating size diversity and giving voice to underrepresented models has been the driving force behind creating this platform. The inspiration behind starting this magazine stemmed from my own journey of self-acceptance and the realization that the fashion and media industries often perpetuate narrow beauty standards that exclude many individuals. I wanted to create a space where all sizes, shapes, and backgrounds are celebrated and where diverse models have the opportunity to be seen, heard, and tell their stories. Sexy Is Not A Size Magazine aims to challenge societal norms, redefine beauty, and promote body positivity by showcasing a range of models who represent the true diversity of the human body. Through this platform, I hope to empower readers to embrace their bodies, regardless of size, and to foster a sense of self-acceptance and confidence. By featuring diverse models and sharing their stories, I aim to inspire others to love themselves unconditionally, to celebrate their uniqueness, and to reject harmful beauty standards that can erode self-esteem. I believe that Sexy Is Not A Size Magazine has the power to make a meaningful impact on its readers by promoting inclusivity, diversity, and self-love. My ultimate goal is to create a community where everyone feels seen, valued, and empowered to embrace their bodies and live authentically.

What made you get into photography? there is not that many female photographers that shoot and are in front of the camera

​

I was inspired to get into photography after spending years in front of the camera as a model. I found myself drawn to the creative process of capturing images and telling stories through photography. As a model, I had the privilege of collaborating with talented photographers who brought out the best in me, such as my mentor, the late Mosi Jelani of BestVoy Images and I wanted to explore the other side of the lens and create my own visual narratives.

Actually, there are very many female photographers and great ones! Did you know that one of photographer for the White House is an African female?  Look up Polly Irungu not only is she in the White House she is founder of the Black Women Photographers group. www.blackwomenphotographers.com

Being a female photographer who is also willing to step in front of the camera has allowed me to bring a unique perspective to my work. I aim to create a safe and empowering space for my subjects, whether they are in front of the camera or behind it, and to showcase the beauty and strength of women in all aspects of the creative process. My journey into photography has been a fulfilling one, and I hope to inspire other women to pursue their passions and break free from limiting beliefs about what they can achieve in the industry. By embracing both roles as a photographer and a model, I strive to contribute to a more inclusive and diverse representation in the world of photography.

In addition to your editorial role, you're also a successful photographer and host of the Soul Sessions Show. How do these creative pursuits complement your mission of promoting self-love and empowerment?

    

 

As a photographer, I have the privilege of capturing moments that showcase the beauty and strength of my subjects. I aim to empower individuals to see themselves, to appreciate their unique qualities, and to celebrate their journey. It's a powerful tool for self-expression and storytelling, allowing me to be a visual storyteller and motivational coach. Hosting the Soul Sessions Show provides a platform to amplify voices and experiences, through music. Through this show, I have the opportunity to connect with a diverse range of musicians and recording artists who share their personal stories, insights, and wisdom on topics related to self-acceptance, resilience, and empowerment within their journeys. The show delivers a platform for artists to share their voice through live performances as well. The show serves as a source of inspiration and encouragement for viewers, it too also follows their dreams. Overall, these creative pursuits work in harmony to promote self-love and empowerment by offering a platform for individuals to share their stories, celebrate their uniqueness, and inspire others to embrace their authentic selves. My mission is to create a community that uplifts, supports, and empowers individuals on their journey.
