QUOTABLES

“You have an incredible idea, or you have a beautiful presence, but you're not able to marry your story to the marketing materials to be able to get the press and get on the stages that you so desperately want to get on.”

“It's so important for black and brown people to be in these positions of power because we then have the responsibility and the opportunity to open the door for the next line of storytellers.”
