Desta White

Desta loves connecting with others through culture, and has been doing so for a long time. A native of Trinidad and a Hampton University alumna, she had the opportunity to travel internationally with community service programs and an African Dance Troupe during her formative years. This shaped her perspective and broadened her view of the world, herself and others. She became passionate about building relationships, listening to people's stories, and being a part of something bigger than herself. The importance of curiosity, cultural diversity and appreciation was cemented in her life.

Desta has spent the last few years working in the retail industry for an e-commerce tech organization. She's a critical thinker with a knack for spotting trends that both boost sales and guarantee customer satisfaction. She has built a progressive career focused on customer retention and brand strategy. Desta believes in the power of investing in others and the community.
