Bio

I am a passionate marketing major with an interest of working in the sports and entertainment space. As a young Black woman I work towards creating equitable chances for youth and young adults of color. One of my many passions is mental health. It is a stigmatized topic in the Black community and I want to make sure that it is a conversationt hat can be had amongst everyone and they can get the resources they seek. In my free time I love to play tennis, go on long walks, read, travel, and learn about the business world.

    Juanita Robinson English Book Scholarship
    The importance of culturally competent and readily available mental health care for Black and brown people cannot be overstated. This pressing social issue is one that I, as a future Black marketing executive, am deeply committed to addressing. The disparities in mental health care access and the lack of diversity among mental health professionals often mean that Black and brown individuals do not receive the culturally sensitive care they need. The stigma surrounding mental health within these communities further exacerbates the situation, making it imperative to create awareness and provide resources that can help bridge this gap. In my current role as a youth mental health advocate and speaker, I strive to bring attention to these critical issues. I engage with young audiences to highlight the importance of mental health and the specific challenges faced by Black and brown communities. My talks often emphasize the systemic barriers that prevent these communities from accessing appropriate care, such as financial constraints, lack of insurance, and the cultural insensitivity of many mental health practitioners. By sharing personal stories and statistical data, I aim to foster a deeper understanding and inspire action among my listeners. My advocacy work extends to my involvement as a student at Howard University, where I collaborate with faculty and staff to raise awareness about mental health disparities. By working within the academic community, I hope to cultivate a culture of mental health awareness and support that extends beyond the university. As I progress in my career as a marketing executive, I plan to leverage my platform to amplify the voices and stories of people of color who struggle with mental health issues. Marketing has the power to shape public perception and influence behavior, and I intend to use this power to highlight the realities of mental health in Black and brown communities. This involves creating marketing campaigns that are not limited to Mental Health Awareness Month but run throughout the year, addressing the needs of different groups within these communities. By showcasing diverse stories and providing resources, these campaigns can help normalize conversations about mental health and reduce stigma. In addition to awareness campaigns, I aim to partner with mental health organizations that focus on serving Black and brown communities. Through these collaborations, we can develop and promote resources that are culturally competent and accessible. This might include creating directories of Black and brown mental health professionals, offering workshops on mental health literacy, and providing financial assistance for those seeking care. By making these resources widely available, we can help ensure that more people in our communities receive the support they need. Ultimately, my goal is to create a more inclusive and supportive environment for Black and brown individuals facing mental health challenges. By continuing my work as a youth advocate, collaborating with academic institutions, and leveraging my career in marketing, I hope to drive meaningful change. Mental health is a crucial aspect of overall well-being, and it is essential that everyone, regardless of their background, has access to the care and support they need. Through sustained effort and collaboration, we can work towards a future where culturally competent mental health care is the norm, not the exception.
