About Imani

At my core, I’m a results-driven creative who is passionate about improving lives.

 

I began on the journalism track, writing for Goddess Girl Magazine and interviewing artists like Jeremih. After honing my craft through the Princeton University Summer Journalism Program and serving as opinion editor for my college newspaper, I pivoted toward marketing during my senior year at Lake Forest College.

​

After graduating cum laude with a B.A. in Communication, I led communications at a Chicago performing arts nonprofit before earning my M.S. in Marketing (magna cum laude!) from UIC. From there, I built my career in social media and content marketing, with roles at UIC College of Pharmacy, ISACA, and now Argonne National Laboratory.

​

Beyond full-time work, I’ve delivered social media content strategy, copywriting, and design for a range of freelance clients across industries like tech, entertainment, beauty, and the arts. Starting June 2025, I'll be accepting new freelance clients through Blacklight Branding.
