Right now we are so proud to have completed our first showhouse space in the Catskills. It’s our new neighborhood, after having to leave Brooklyn in 2020 due to Jeanine’s Long COVID condition. As Jeanine struggles with disabilities after being infected with COVID-19, we never thought we’d be able to do a project like this again. Read more>>

I’m generally speaking a very happy person and I tend to laugh quite easily (sometimes TOO easily), so yes, I’ve definitely laughed recently.

As a native Houstonian who started sewing at age 5 and designing at age 12, I pause to reflect on my journey—from those early days as a kid sketching dreams to creating costumes for reality TV shows. It’s a path that led me from fashion to songwriting, where I earned awards and became a seven-time honorary doctorate recipient. And now an award winning screenplay writer. Read more>>

The most recent moments that I’ve reflected on that makes me both laugh and proud is how far myself and my label The Tenth Music has come. It started off as a conversation between my brother and I in Woodbridge, Virginia. I posted a video on social media of me singing a song by Trey Songz and Sammie, while my cousin was beatboxing.

Absolutely. My most recent proud moment was producing a major Amazon/Audible campaign that spanned multiple global regions. It was one of the biggest projects I’ve ever led, with over 640 deliverables — everything from static OOH and digital placements to full train wraps and live boards. What made me especially proud wasn’t just the scale, but the team I worked with. Read more>>

Yes. I’ve been going through grief for the past month. I lost a close friend of mine and an Aunt recently. My spirits have been down for a while now.

Honestly, the moment that still gives me chills was meeting my ultimate photography idol, Annie Leibovitz, on her Women book tour. She has shaped so much of how I see strength, softness, and storytelling through a lens. For twenty years she’s been the North Star of my career. Read more>>

A moment that recently made me both laugh and feel proud was launching my very first book box. In 2023, I released the first season of Project (De)Construction, and while it was powerful, I also learned that not everyone feels comfortable discussing religion on camera, which I completely understand.
