Last night I had the privilege of attending an absolutely amazing networking event hosted by BYP network x Sky and I can’t contain my excitement! The atmosphere was electric, all driven by a common goal of connecting, learning & growing together. A place where the ‘Black community’ can see what is possible if you have a dream, just don’t quit. I want to express my heartfelt gratitude to Patience N. for being such an inspiration.
