STRUT with Shaw

I've been building in silence. Now? Now we talk. ❤️👠

Because I don't announce. I deliver. And then I tell y'all.

Let me refresh your memory. I said I'd own a modeling agency. And Did! 💃🏾

I said I'd step into tech and become a founder again.
And is! 💃🏾

So I'm not asking permission to take up space anymore, I'm just letting you know where to find me.

Find me closing out NY Tech Week on a beauty + fashion tech panel. The honest one. Where founders finally talk about the part nobody posts about.

📅 June 8 🕠 5:30 PM 📍 In person, NYC

This is the right room, the right platform, the right time. Slide in my DMs for an invite. Registration link is over at

Still building. Undefeated.

One Shaw, never two! 👠

The work continues. The vision gets bigger. The leadership gets deeper.

Imposter syndrome is real, and I'm amongst the many women who struggle with it. As a high achiever who hasn't accomplished nearly all my goals yet, it's a challenge for me to stop and bask in the moments of triumph and victory.

So today I'm choosing to celebrate a win. Thank you, and on this wonderful article on and me. This has been a 10-year journey with three pivots and continuous growth at every phase, and we're just getting started.

I started with no knowledge on how to run a business, let alone a modeling agency. I had been in the fashion industry for quite some time before, but as a model. STRUT was born because of what I experienced as a model. I saw a void and went for it. Along the way, I learned and put myself in spaces and places that would help with the advancement. Overall, it's been a lot of grit, grind, and God's favor!

You don't have to know everything or have it all figured out. Belief in self and your dreams are key. Your circle is also crucial. Once you're certain of your purpose and you do the work, things will fall into place. It's definitely not going to happen overnight, but stay the course!

Xoxo,
Shaw 💋❤️
