WHAT MADE YOU WANT TO BECOME AN INFLUENCER? I am in love with content creation and music. Social media has become my public diary, fashion blog, and lifestyle journal. I started taking content creation seriously at the beginning of 2019. I figured if I had MEGA and Celebrity influencers in my inbox asking little ole me about “what products do you use” OR “which app do you use for filters” OR “who does your color” that I was already an influencer. Every concept and idea related to my endeavors has been self-taught. I am always looking for new ways to stand out and exponentially increase my partnership’s reach. I strive to share authentic, friendly, and inspiring content.

WE SEE YOU HAVE PARTNERED UP WITH KKW BEAUTY! WHAT IS THAT LIKE? I love makeup and I love being able to transform my look. It’s like art, so when I began receiving their PR boxes, I was over the moon excited. I still am! It’s one thing to receive PR from a company that is so well known- but it takes it to a whole other level when the product is actually good.

WHAT IS THE SECRET TO BLOWING UP ON INSTAGRAM? It’s funny because I don’t even feel as though I’ve blown up yet. I remember looking at content creators with the following that I have now in complete awe. Now that I’m there, I feel like I have so much more to accomplish. I don’t think there really is a secret, because I get a lot of people in my direct messages asking me how. The recipe is really having great content, trying to stay as true to yourself as possible, and engaging with the people who follow and support you.

YOU HAVE THE MOST FLAWLESS SKIN. ANY BEAUTY TIPS FOR US?! Honestly, I stay out of drama and I don’t interact with toxic people or situations. I do have a facial routine but it’s very simple- I just wash it, and keep it clean. When I don’t have to wear makeup, I don’t. Every so-often I do a charcoal face mask to clean out my pores and remove any excess dirt on my skin. That’s it! I could do more… maybe drink more water and learn the perfect skin routine but who has the time?

TELL US ABOUT YOUR BRAND, THE BUBBLE MARKET. The Bubble Market is actually my “brobby.” It’s a cross between a business and a hobby. I started it with my sister Lynn in 2016. We were really gravy on making bath bombs and bath milks. That’s what we were known for. We took a long break to sort out our life paths. Finally at the end of 2020, we decided we wanted to bring the market back. Making the products for the Bubble Market is a form of therapy and it’s something that brings me so much happiness.

WE ALL HAD TO OVERCOME ADVERSITY THIS PAST YEAR. WHAT IS SOMETHING YOU HAD TO OVERCOME DURING THE SHUTDOWN AND HOW IS THAT BLOSSOMING NOW IN 2021? I learned how to say no last year. I know this may sound strange, but I also learned how to say goodbye and mean it. I was in a toxic job, dealing with toxic people, and it was detrimentally affecting my health. Learning that certain situations are simply not worth it- was the best lesson I could have taught myself. Accepting that I, myself could be to xic and sometimes even facing my own issues has really helped me mature and love the woman that I am becoming.
