Q: What does your name mean? Is it even a real name?
YES! My mother found “DeVona” in the baby book and it means “Defender”. The “V” is capitalized, because she’s the fanciest person I know. If you would like the story or to talk about work, CONTACT ME!
Q: What is your favorite quote?
I have three:
“When I dare to be powerful, to use my strength in the service of my vision, then it becomes less and less important whether I am afraid.” ― Audre Lorde (Soundtrack for my life: “UMI Says”, Mos Def)
“Life is like riding a bicycle. To keep your balance, you must keep moving.” — Albert Einstein (Soundtrack for my life: “Biking”, Frank Ocean ft. Jay-Z & Tyler the Creator)
“Trust yourself. You know more than you think you do.” — Benjamin Spock (Soundtrack for my life: “Shine Bright”, MAJOR.)
Q: Who inspires you?
Personally: My parents and younger brother are AH-MAZING and I can only hope to be as awesome and loving as those three. Professionally: I love how Issa Rae has been able to create her own “table” and provide a platform for aspiring Black artists, businesses and creatives.
Q: Anything else we should know?
My favorite color is yellow, although teal is my “Power” color. Sugar does not belong in grits, and I am judging you if this is your choice. I am an avid reader and bibliophile and enjoy dissecting films in my spare time. I fancy myself a connoisseur of only the finest candy and have an extensive collection of wine.
