ABOUT ME:

Born in Nigeria and raised in the American Midwest, I find compelling ways to elevate the dignity of Black people, Brown people, women people, trans people, differently abled people, gay people and poor people. 

• I do this by writing, creating media strategies, and designing digital content that highlight the genius of the most impacted. 
• I have done this on Capitol Hill, in rural Mississippi, upstate New York, Little Haiti in Miami, Seattle–Tacoma International Airport, in New Orleans and at the White House. 
• I do this because Jumọkẹ means loved by all and I want to be deserving of the name my mama gave me.

When I’m not working, I like my bourbon neat, which according to sexism means I have automatic cool lady status; I regularly submit to a mean Senegalese braider who fusses about my unruly natural hair; and my mac and cheese is better than your mama's. 

I’m a people-loving cool-status-having unruly woman and you have no choice but to love me.
