“Solidarity is more than a thing we feel when we see media coverage of horrific events. Solidarity is being compelled to be in a constant state of awareness, action, & change.
Solidarity is a lifestyle.” - Mo
She is also the founder of Solidarity&Co. by Mo, an advocacy-based brand offering business services, a variety of products, as well as speaking & creative services. Mo's decision to become an entrepreneur stems from over a decade of experience serving as first point of contact for some of the nation's largest companies.
Some would say Mo's greatest strengths are her outgoing personality, strong work ethic, authenticity, integrity, and genuine love for supporting others. Her most important roles are granddaughter, daughter, sister, partner, homegirl, student, citizen, & changemaker!
Mo is an ambitious woman who refuses to be silenced and vows to use her voice, lived experience, and big mouth, for good.
All of her endeavors are meant to promote solidarity with all oppressed people, everywhere, all the time.
