Sadly, it was time to leave The Atlanta Voice this week. In such a short amount of time, I met so many great people who were so invested in my future and were ready to help me succeed. On our way to New Orleans, we were given media passes for our first Essence Fest experience.

We took a tour of the building and got to see their brand new studio center. That was when all the bells started going off! As someone who loves video production, I instantly was creating content ideas in my head.
