- I’m Aaliyah Butler — I’m 17, and I’ve already been through enough life to understand who I am, what I bring, and where I’m headed. I’m not just out here chasing jobs — I’m building something way bigger. I’m the founder of Live to Die, a brand built on meaning, risk, emotion, and legacy. Everything I touch is real, intentional, and rooted in truth. I’ve taken my pain, creativity, and vision and turned it into business. I’ve designed clothing, built drop concepts, planned launches, and even mapped out how I want my music and fashion to release together — full rollouts with a purpose behind every detail. This isn’t just a dream for me, it’s what I do every day.
- I’m a natural leader and a fast learner. I’ve taught myself business operations, finance management, branding, marketing, product design, and how to move smart in the digital space. I understand tech and innovation deeply — one of my product ideas is officially patented, and I plan to build it into something that makes a real impact. I’ve worked with tools like Google Docs, Google Analytics, Canva, Microsoft Office, and I’m confident with digital systems and platforms. I know how to plan, problem-solve, and stay organized — even under pressure.
- Demonstrated resilience and independence by mastering and enhancing assigned tasks.
- Executed digital marketing, video editing, web design layout concepts, and social media strategy with clarity, emotion, and structure.
- What sets me apart is how aware I am — of myself, of others, and of the bigger picture. I don’t just work — I understand. I read energy, emotion, and patterns. I know how to collaborate, take feedback, lead with intention, and adapt to any environment. I’ve studied people, systems, and myself. I’m not perfect, but I’m intentional — and that’s why I keep growing. I don’t move like the average 17-year-old, because my mindset, my experience, and my purpose have always been ahead of the curve.
- Ready to contribute, create, and grow in business, branding, marketing, creative direction, tech, digital work, and team leadership.
- Exhibited smart, innovative thinking and emotional resilience in high-pressure situations.
- Composed impactful music and lyrics addressing themes of emotional experiences.
- Designed a cinematic script featuring Emma and Damien, showcasing narrative through visual elements and emotional resonance.
