How EveryStylishGirl Founder Nana Agyemang Is Bringing BIPOC Women into Media


ABOUT THE EPISODE

Collaboration over competition is a core belief of our team at Create & Cultivate.

And it’s clear that Nana Agyemang is someone who abides by this philosophy as well.

As the founder and CEO of EveryStylishGirl, Nana is at the helm of a multimedia platform that provides young women with the skills and access to obtain fashion media jobs.

Which is fitting because Nana’s own résumé as a fashion editor is stacked with major media outlets, including New York Magazine’s The Cut, Refinery29, Elle, and The New York Times.

On this episode of WorkParty, Nana shares how she broke into the competitive world of fashion media herself and how she’s helping others do the same.
