You’re here because you care about leading with purpose, growing with intention, and staying well while doing it. Me too, and that’s why I created TheBriScribe.
Growing up, I envisioned myself as an FBI agent or a homicide detective, solving cases, keeping kids off the streets, and mentoring those who found themselves in trouble.
Pretty on brand for a 90s kid from Brooklyn who grew up in an environment where physical and emotional abuse were normalized… believing my purpose was to save people from similar harm.
Life didn’t take me into law enforcement, but it did lead me to the same core mission: supporting and protecting people, just in a different way.

Self-discovery and healing are the breath of unlimited possibilities.
Life has a funny way of redirecting us in surprising ways. For me, that shift came during the pandemic, when slowing down forced me to reconnect with the parts of myself I once abandoned. I realized I wasn’t meant for just one dream or one identity. I’m a storyteller. A connector. A creator. A woman with many seasons of growth.
Being so focused on one dream made me forget that I am a multifaceted being. With that realization, instead of chasing a story that I once told myself, due to my upbringing, I began to rewrite my narrative.
Naturally, I carried gifts that could be utilized in many facets. My passion for creativity, storytelling, and community is what helped me climb up the corporate ladder at my first “big girl job”. I’ve held many roles before then, and those transferable skills advocated to my present moment.

What Inspired TheBriScribe?
There is no passion to be found playing small - in settling for a life that is less than the one you are capable of living.
Understanding my innate gifts and leadership abilities introduced me to my purpose.
Those gifts led me into community-driven work, problem-solving, empowering underrepresented voices, designing supportive spaces, and eventually, building TheBriScribe.
A big-picture thinker with a holistic approach to getting things done. TheBriScribe was born out of my love for purpose-driven storytelling, community-centered collaborations, and collective impact.
The more I leaned into who I am, the more I saw a pattern:
Women are powerful puzzle-solvers, but reaching our goals requires one alignment: intention + heart + vision, all working together.
I’ve uncovered a framework that meets you exactly where you are and helps you grow into where you’re meant to be, and I’m ready to share those insights with you.
To Consider: What patterns show up for you in seasons of change? Those trends can help guide decision-making while identifying both short-term and long-term goals. This self-reflection practice becomes a gentle internal audit, inviting you to look inwards with intention.
