THE CHAIR
I built an AWARD WINNING Podcast called THE CHAIR to highlight hair journeys. I’m a Black woman, an educator and newly minted tech entrepreneur. As people sit in THE CHAIR, you will be immersed into stories surrounding education, entrepreneurship, identity, and magic. I have built THE CHAIR platform dedicated to supporting Black and Brown people on their hair journey. Enjoy as you listen to the voices in THE CHAIR.
