The Executive Visibility and Leadership Expert Transforming Smart Teams into Strategic Powerhouses

From Hiding My Voice to Amplifying Yours

I’ve built my career helping leaders own their space with clarity, structure, and presence. But it wasn’t always this way. In high school, someone once called me a ‘passive Black woman.’

Another person (a teacher) described me as the brains of a project, who would let another take all the credit.

Why? Because I was a master at hiding.

Hiding my strength, hiding my voice, and hiding my impact. And for years, I thought that this was the key to success. I thought that this is what humility looks like.

But I discovered that’s not the case.

Playing small doesn’t work.

Now, after building a successful legal career and speaking at national conferences and developing breakthrough methodologies that help technical professionals like attorneys and accountants command strategic influence, I've learned that this hiding epidemic extends far beyond individual leaders—it's happening in boardrooms across America.

When your best minds lack influence, your competitors set the industry agenda. I solve this through comprehensive leadership authority programs.

The Leadership Paradox Costing Organizations Millions

Your most valuable executives—the technical experts, innovative thinkers, and industry specialists—have brilliant insights that should be driving your strategic direction.

Instead, they're sitting quietly in leadership meetings while less knowledgeable voices shape critical decisions.

This isn't a communication problem. It's an organizational authority problem.

Why I Built Own Elevation Global

I kept seeing the same pattern that once defined my own career: brilliant minds staying silent while inferior strategies won the day.

The cost? Talented professionals leaving. Strategic opportunities missed. Competitive advantage squandered.

That's why I founded Own Elevation Global—to work exclusively with high-performing executives and leadership teams who refuse to let their best insights sit on the sidelines while competitors set the industry agenda.
