Ok, stalkers... here's the expanded edition:

Bajan born, now calling Canada home. I'm a creative with a unique set of skills that makes problems disappear (sorry, can't help with problematic people). I'm a writer, business owner, and mom who hasn't had a "real job" since 2012, when I realized I could make a living by doing whatever I wanted. Spoiler alert: I never looked back.

I'm the author of Wash Day, a children's book that turns hair washing (yes, really!) into a fun and empowering experience for curly-haired toddlers. Inspired by my own daughter's struggles with hair washing, I wrote the book to help her feel more involved in the process and excited about the end result. It's the first book of its kind, and I'm pretty proud of that.

But I don't stop at books. I'm also the founder of Choco Lit Press, a publishing house on a mission to amplify Black voices in literature. I work with incredible authors to bring stories to life-stories that celebrate the richness and diversity of the Black experience. These are the kinds of books that deserve to be held, read, and cherished. And if you're looking to share those stories with the world, I'm here for it.

Then there's PressFixer-my digital agency where my team and I design, build, and maintain websites that help people find the customers who need them. Whether you're a coach, consultant, or creative, I help you craft a digital presence and brand that speaks to your audience. From websites to e-learning platforms, I turn ideas into online experiences that actually work for you.

Through it all, my goal is simple: to help others see the world a little differently and give them the tools to do something amazing with it. Whether it's writing a story, building a website, or just brainstorming ideas over coffee, I'm always looking for creative solutions that make a real impact.

When I'm not knee-deep in one of my projects, you can find me indulging my curiosity-learning French, experimenting with new recipes, or planning my next road trip. I'm a firm believer in the power of curiosity to drive creativity, and I can't wait to see what's next.

The rest will be in my tell-all book... pending release. (lol)
