“You lose nothing by trying. Go to the workshop. Try the thing. The worst someone can say is no.”

Through workshops and collaborative design sessions, Bee helps girls at PEARLS explore visual storytelling, design thinking, and creative confidence.

“You’re not going to find your creative voice if you’re replacing the creative process.”

As AI continues to reshape creative industries, Bee continues advocating for the joy and value of human imagination.

At PEARLS, we believe creativity is built through genuine effort. There is no right way to be creative and any skills you spend time with will continue to grow into your own personal style.

“You should always enjoy creating just to create.”

Before she became PEARLS’ Brand Design Specialist, Bee was a young artist selling commissions online at twelve years old and spending hours sketching original characters.

Today, she still protects creativity and mentors our girls to foster and embrace theirs.

“I wanted anyone to glance at our materials and do a double-take. I wanted it to feel loud, bold, and fun.”

Bee is the creative force behind so much of PEARLS visual identity. From bold color palettes to playful movement and collage work, Bee has helped shape a brand that feels vibrant, youthful, and unmistakably PEARLS!

Still thinking about the incredible support shown by our PEARLS community at Inspired to Lead. 💙

Because of YOU, we not only unlocked our $50,000 match, we exceeded our goal and made an even greater impact for girls across our community.

We are endlessly grateful to everyone who showed up, gave generously, and continues to believe in the power of PEARLS and the girls we serve.
