Born and raised in Brooklyn, Rhonesha founded Her Agenda, a digital platform that shines a light on powerful female leaders and provides resources to inspire the next generation.
She started her career writing for outlets like NBC and HuffPost but quickly noticed a gap in how women, especially Black women, were being represented. That’s when Her Agenda was born. Through her platform, Rhonesha offers tools, mentorship, and stories that encourage young women to push past obstacles and claim their space.
Beyond the site, she’s become a sought-after public speaker, appearing at The White House, Google, Adweek, and more. Over the years, she’s earned awards and recognition while focusing on highlighting others and building a space where women can thrive.
