Recently, I’ve started to revive my exercise routine. Thanks to COVID-19, the world and a large majority of its inhabitants, have been forced to resort to alternative forms of therapy, meditation and self-care. I’ve always considered myself (somewhat) healthy but, ever since being quarantined, my diet has totally altered and I find myself searching for […]

COVID-19 has turned all of our lives upside down. Aside from witnessing history being made, we’re living in a society that is guided by fear and we’ve come to the point where families can’t even pinpoint where their next check nor meal may come from.

Not only is the international mood in a state of mass hysteria (and buying up toilet paper like it’s the end of human existence), but a majority of […]

**Editor’s Note: Typing with stiletto nails is not my life’s purpose; therefore, due to my current inability to type at a regular speed, this post will be short and sweet. Pray for my fingers ya’ll!** Anywho, I had the absolute pleasure of attending Krewe of Du Vin’s Mardi Gras themed gala last night, and it […]

Music plays a pivotal role within my life. Discovering new and up-and-coming artists also gives way for broadening and diversifying my auditory palate. So, it’s no wonder how Mereba became the soundtrack to my current mood and existence. Her ultra-smooth vocals are sweeter than honey, laced over melodic, slow-grooving guitar solos and lyrics that pierce […]

On February 26, 2020, I was invited by my good friend and colleague, Shadana Miranda of Influential Petite to model in her fashion/style feature on Great Day Houston. Per usual, I was delighted to take the leap and support my girl in any way possible! Great Day Houston is a dynamic, local morning show that highlights […]
