About Me:
At 50, I am a proud, dark-skinned Black woman who embraces every part of who I am. My journey has been one of growth, self-discovery, and unapologetic boldness. I am confident in my skin, radiating a love for self from years of evolving into the woman I was always meant to be. With over 20 years of corporate experience in investment banking, I thrived in high-pressure environments, breaking barriers and forging paths for others. For the past eight years, I have channelled my expertise into running my talent development consultancy, partnering with global organisations to build equitable frameworks that empower diverse talent to shine.

I am celebrating another chapter of my life where creativity takes centre stage. As I write my first book, I am also ready to embrace the world of modelling—a space where the representation of older, confident Black women, particularly those with dark skin, is long overdue. I want to challenge societal norms and redefine what it means to be beautiful, vibrant, and self-assured at every age. This new journey is about celebrating life, inspiring others, and showing that boldness has no expiration date. Through my lens, the world will see that 50 is not just fabulous—it’s powerful.
