Hi. I'm
Jamillah the Poet
writer, designer & dream pusher
dedicated to helping you build worlds,
simplify systems & tell stories that
matter to your people.
My work
at 91GRIT is
designed to help you
share your business story
in a more compelling way because
your message is your business

STORIES and SYSTEMS
my speciality
Your idea is an entire world. And that world needs a plan, a design and a clear story to help your people {that includes your team and your target audience} understand who you are and what you offer. There's a problem out there that you're designed to solve. And at 91GRIT I'm dedicated to helping you build your world and tell the story behind your solution {that's your business story}.
Vanderbilt Educated. Small Business Raised for the last 15+ years I've helped personal brands, non-profits, Fortune 500, and small businesses tell the story that matters most in order to grow their community, secure their funding or work on their vision while I work on the details. And today is no different. Let's get you out the gate.

91GRIT the BUSINESS
effective & practical
I specialize in helping purpose-driven brands use storytelling techniques in how they talk about their business. From website development to website copy, from writing business plans to managing your team, your communication strategy, your story, is at the heart of it all.
SUPER-POWER: By day I design clear messages and simple systems. By night I play with words the way the 5 year old me played with mud ~ wild & curious ~ because if you handle it right, it could become anything. And that combination of business and poetry helps me provide PRACTICAL & CREATIVE solutions to advance your best story.
TRAINING: With a public policy degree from Vanderbilt University, and more than 15 years experience working in non-profits, managing teams and teaching effective communication for Fortune 500 & small business startups, I know that if you package your message right, it will empower your people.

JAMILLAH the POET
Inspiring & Creative
Wild and consumed with a heart for poetry, I lean toward raw and honest on stage, bold and broken on paper.
15+ years writing and performing spoken word has taught me the power of a story that inspires action, change and connection.
And I personally understand that the person behind the brand must stay built up. After all, they give the business a soul.
