As a proud Liberian American, Naweh’s story is steeped in rich cultural traditions where music, singing, and dance have been integral parts of family life and celebrations.  From singing in choirs to participating in creative arts programs throughout her school years, Naweh’s journey of courage and building a brand based on talent, not just her beauty, will leave you encouraged to chase your dreams with boldness in your mind and joy in your heart.  Naweh has already made waves, being featured as a Spotlight Artist on local Channel 9's Great Day Washington, where she performed the iconic Black National Anthem, Lift Every Voice & Sing.
