A creative entrepreneur hailing from Grenada, West Indies. I’ve lived in America since 8 years old and have been a proud Brooklyn resident since 2002. In 2008, started my first brand with my brand InI Vibez, which allowed me to explore design, culture, and storytelling through a creative lens. As a mother of three daughters, I’ve always wanted to create something lasting, a space that reflects our roots, creativity, and the power to shape our own narratives.
The initial vision behind Make Manifest was to create a space to showcase my own work alongside other unique brands from across the diaspora. What began as a retail concept has evolved into a thriving creative community hub blending art, culture, entrepreneurship, connection, and now food. A space that inspires and brings people together.
I’m honored to hold space here in Bedstuy, to serve as an anchor in a neighborhood I love deeply and to keep growing alongside it. My goal is to see Make Manifest, Tompkins Avenue, and Bedstuy thrive as a whole, with creativity, community, and a strong local economy and profile at its center.
