Today we’d like to introduce you to Sekiyha “Ky” C..
Hi Sekiyha “Ky”, so excited to have you on the platform. So before we get into questions about your work-life, maybe you can bring our readers up to speed on your story and how you got to where you are today?
I started posting on social media a lot more during Covid, just like a lot of other people. I started my journey on Twitter but it branched into other platforms and I built myself a brand of who you see today.
I’m sure it wasn’t obstacle-free, but would you say the journey has been fairly smooth so far?
It has not been a smooth road at all. Social media and fashion were and still are a hobby for me, but when you turn them into more of a job, it can get more un enjoyable. But, through the years I started to balance things a lot better, especially since I was diagnosed with a chronic illness. I needed to slow down and take my hobby back. So now, I focus on the fun of social media, and if I want to have it as a job, I do it! I still work a 9-5 like most people!
Thanks for sharing that. So, maybe next you can tell us a bit more about your work?
I just moved across the state, I was a retail girly. I started small and worked my way up to assistant manager at a great small business in Detroit. At the moment, since I’ve moved fairly recently, I haven’t found what I want to do at my new home, but I know I want to focus more on my social media, doing what I love in Michigan and finding spots that inspire me!
We’d love to hear about any fond memories you have from when you were growing up?
I loved putting on fashion shows for my family. I think that’s what sparked my passion for clothes and being in a creative space. It made me realize I wanted to expand on what was in front of me, that’s when i decided to go to a program through Yellowbrick and the Fashion Institute of Arts to get my certification in Styling Foundations!
