"My platform is fairly new, and I'm new to the children's publishing world, but I'm no stranger to the joys and challenges of girlhood. I was once a little girl, and I raised one too. Sweetly enough, it's still a family thing. Her daughter inspired me to create my ever-so spirited main character, Niya!💞  I've always had a deep love of imagination (I'm an only child myself), chplay (baby, me and my paper-doll shows were epic), and storytelling (which is simply thoughts put on paper) It's a full circle moment. Just knowing that the mission to create a kids platform that uplifts, empowers, and brings childhood smiles to young girls everywhere exists because I'm putting in the work---that's God."

Fun Facts About Me:


  • I grew up loving stories, snacks, and Saturday morning cartoons.
  • I believe books should feel like a hug and a high-five.
  • I live in New York City---where every street in my neighborhood has a story (and a bodega).
  • I think glitter is a neutral color when it comes to being a kid.
