I find inspiration beyond time in the legacy of Martin Luther King, Jr. His vision led me, a black woman, to dream audaciously and unapologetically in bold hues. I began a mission that inspires women with confidence as my compass, in the spirit of resilience and strength that has come to us from our common history. Dr. King's impact is felt, and I am still painting my dreams in the vivid color of possibility thanks to his legacy.

With love and lipstick,
