Hey guys, outside of my love for blogging I also wanted to share more on my journey so far!
I am 4 x award winning writer who has written press releases, essays, reviews and general articles for a number of digital publications and blogs. I have also interviewed some of the world’s biggest talents from the world of Business and Entertainment. I am also a BA English Literature Graduate from the University of Greenwich. I was the Editor and Co-creator of the phenomenal inspirational online magazine In-spire LS for 8 years. I am an avid presenter and have presented for a number of mediums and will be launching filmed interviews on SashaShantel.com in 2021 both in filmed and email Q&A format.
I am now focused on the development of my female empowerment brand Women Who Slay and rebranding sashashantel.com into a leading fashion, entertainment and lifestyle site. Watch this space!
