✨ Feeling incredibly blessed and grateful to have curated an exhibition at The Mint Museum Uptown, a Carolina staple for the arts. Growing up in Lancaster, SC, I remember visiting the Mint with my parents and dreaming about the day I’d see my work on those walls. What once felt like a distant dream is now my reality, thanks to hard work, faith, and an amazing support system. This journey has taught me that the sky isn’t the limit—there’s a whole universe out there waiting to be explored! 🚀 Thank you to everyone who attended the opening reception and all the talented artists involved. This is just the beginning! 💖

🌟 Mission Statement: “Fresh Perspectives: A Journey Through Collegiate Creative Minds” showcases the narratives of college artists. Curated by Travis Barnes-Roberson, this exhibition highlights creativity’s transformative power, encouraging dialogue and inspiring change through the vibrant voices of emerging artists. Let’s engage and explore art as a catalyst for understanding! 🌈✨

To @quingwinn thank you for the mentorship and being so helpful throughout the process. Without you I’m not sure where this could have gone or ended! Love you always!

On March 4th, 2023, at @mpbaptist I married my soul mate/my pumpkin/the love of my life, and so many more titles! Whoever thought that the talkative goofball from Lancaster, SC, and the quiet guy with the glasses from Charlotte, NC, would find love on @instagram!

To our friends and family, we say thank you. Thank you for being here from day one. Thank you for allowing us to love one another while developing ourselves individually. To the day “staff,” we say thank you for dealing with us! Especially mine! Cause whew…I was giving Bridezilla at times.

New Orleans, LA - The Crescent City - April 2026

Recently, my friends, husband, and I spent a whirlwind few days in New Orleans. The city instantly captivated us and left us wanting more. Though our visit was brief, we knew we’d return. Culture, history, and energy fill every street. You can’t experience New Orleans in one trip. I can’t wait to come back, dive deeper, and enjoy even more of this amazing city.

One of the trip’s highlights was meeting our tour guide, Nate. He offers many tours each detailed, organized, energetic, genuine, and professional. Nate’s love for the city shines in every story. We enjoyed his tours so much that he’s now our go-to guide. We truly recommend him! @tour.with.nate

I’m grateful to travel and experience new cultures. Sharing New Orleans with people I love is something I’ll always treasure. Here’s to more trips, more learning, and continued exploration.

Kiawah Island, SC (Touch of Charleston) – March 2026
—
I celebrated turning 30 with a trip to my happy place: the beach. This year, I spent my birthday at Kiawah Island, and it has quickly secured its spot as one of my favorite coastlines. There’s something magical about the sand beneath my feet, the steady rhythm of the waves, and the crisp ocean breeze.

Turning 30 feels empowering. My 20s were filled with learning, evolving, exploring, and defining my identity. Now, entering this decade, I’m eager to deepen my growth and strive toward my best self.

I’m deeply grateful to God for every moment, lesson, and connection that’s shaped my journey. Here’s to discovering new places, embracing fresh experiences, and a decade ahead brimming with growth and joy!

I celebrated turning 30 with a trip to my happy place: the beach. This year, I spent my birthday at Kiawah Island, and it has quickly secured its spot as one of my favorite coastlines. There’s something magical about the sand beneath my feet, the steady rhythm of the waves, and the crisp ocean breeze.

Turning 30 feels empowering. My 20s were filled with learning, evolving, exploring, and defining my identity. Now, entering this decade, I’m eager to deepen my growth and strive toward my best self.

I’m deeply grateful to God for every moment, lesson, and connection that’s shaped my journey. Here’s to discovering new places, embracing fresh experiences, and a decade ahead brimming with growth and joy!

Some days feel heavier than others. Some days you’re carrying things you don’t even have words for yet. If that’s you today, please know this, you don’t have to hold it alone. #BeThe1To

I’m partnering with @ncdhhs to share a reminder that support is closer than you think. The 988 Suicide & Crisis Lifeline is available 24/7. You can call, text, or chat with 988 anytime to connect with someone who will listen with care, compassion, and no judgment.

You don’t need the perfect words. You don’t need to have it all figured out. Sometimes one conversation is enough to help you breathe again.

Save this number. Visit the link in my bio and share it with someone you love.
Because even one moment of connection can make a difference.

🎉 SPIN, SAVE & STEP INTO FOMO 🎶✨

You’re invited to Spin N’ Save, the official warm-up celebration for FOMO: Museum Block Party, Charlotte’s biggest museum block party and cultural takeover! @fomomuseumblockparty

Featuring an electrifying live DJ set by @soundsbytati , this night is brought to you by The Mimosa Way, proudly supported by @advancial and @surefiremarketco .

📍 Surefire Market | 📅 Tuesday, April 14
⏰ 7:00 PM | 🎟️ FREE ENTRY
🍔 First 50 guests receive a FREE burger or chicken sandwich

Spin N’ Save is your pregame before FOMO takes over Uptown on Wednesday, April 15, activating @themintmuseum, @hbganttcenter, and @thebechtler in partnership with @cltshout ! My Brother’s Keeper, and 5th St District, all powered by @sonorous.wave

From 5–9 PM, Tryon Street becomes the culture corridor, then SHOUT! After Dark takes over the bars on 5th Street starting at 9 PM.

Whether you’re here for the music, the community, or the culture, this is your moment to tap in early.

Come for the beats. Stay for the movement. Go ahead and take Thursday off, we’re outside.

Some stories stay with you because they remind you how important it is to be heard. #BeThe1To

I’m partnering with @ncdhhs to share something close to my heart. I know someone who reached a point where they just needed to talk to someone outside their circle, someone who would listen without judgment. Watching them struggle was hard, and not knowing how to help felt even harder. That’s when I learned about the 988 Suicide & Crisis Lifeline.

You can call, text, or chat 988 anytime, day or night, and connect with a trained counselor who truly listens and cares. You don’t have to be in a crisis. You don’t need the right words. Sometimes, just being heard can make all the difference.

Save this number. Visit the link in my bio and share it with someone you love.
Because support should always be within reach.
