Hobbies & Interests
02.2023 - Current

With a robust online presence, I have amassed a following of 30,000 individuals across various social media platforms since commencing in February 2023 under the moniker Lifted_pdx. I have further solidified my influence by partnering as an affiliate with prominent brands, including Coramoon for clothing, Forlest women’s wear, The Nerd Box PR for books, Watt Pad in the publishing realm, Greystone also within publishing, and Defender Ring catering to women’s self-defense needs. My online impact has been accentuated by the release of 10 viral videos since March, with one becoming so widely shared that it led to an unprecedented surge on Amazon during the "Stuff Your Kindle Day" event on June 30th.
