Who We Are
As Black, Latina, and white women leading a small, women-owned business, we bring our racial/ethnic and social identity and lived experience to the forefront in our work. Our distinct backgrounds and career experiences enable us to bring nuanced perspectives to complex questions and issues involving race, social identity, and power and serve as an embodied reminder to our clients that there are many ways to look at and engage with what is happening. We bring to bear 30+ years of practitioner experience in the space of diversity, equity, inclusion, and anti-racism, research and evaluation in the areas of race, ethnicity, gender, socioeconomic status, sexuality, and intersectionality, and large-scale behavioral and organizational change.
We envision a world in which everyone can operate from a place of liberation, an experience of being supported, valued, celebrated and free.
Our paths intersected after each of us had taken the leap into solo entrepreneurship to build our individual coaching and consulting practices. Conversations over coffee about what we value and our deep-seated belief in the possibility of a more just, equitable, and beautiful reality led us to partner together. Today we bring our individual strengths and backgrounds to our work with leaders, teams, and organizations striving to create cultures where everyone thrives.
Our biographies shape our lenses.
Consultant, racial equity coach, strategist, public health professional with 30 years of experience in diversity, equity and inclusion in the nonprofit, education and health sectors.
Why: Because my parents modeled activism as a way of life growing up—from advocating for equity at our elementary school to protesting for racially equitable hiring at Brooklyn construction sites.
Just by looking at me, you might not know... how much I adore live theater arts—Broadway musicals, Opera at the Met, the Alvin Ailey American Dance Theater. Their signature work, Revelations, is an American masterpiece.
