Quelina J.
Hey Sis! Thanks for stopping by. I’m thrilled that you’re here. I’m excited to get to know you better. Let’s start with an introduction. I’ll go first.
I’m Quelina Jones, but all my friends call me Que. So, you can too. :) I’m a Richmond native, writer and speaker who focuses on healing and growth through transparency. More than a strategic communicator and a profound storyteller, I am a living witness that with faith, hard work and consistency, you can mend your broken pieces and live the life you desire. Through my blog I share my personal struggles and victories in hopes that it will inspire you to keep pressing forward in the face of adversity.
My greatest and [real] full-time job is being a mother. I have two brilliant and beautiful daughters who keep me on my toes. When not on mommy-duty or writing jaw dropping scripts and personal essays for online publications like xoNecole.com, I am busy working in the TV/film industry. It has been rewarding in many ways and I feel truly blessed to work in a field I am so passionate about.
In October 2019, I graduated with my Bachelor of Science in Business Management. It was a dream deferred and I am thrilled to have reached such a beautiful milestone in my life. Earlier this year, I produced and directed my first short film. Talk about exhilarating! The cast and crew were heaven sent and it was an experience I’ll never forget. We’re currently in the editing phase. So, be sure to check back for the premiere date and location. I also made my debut as an author with the release of my children’s book, Nana & Her Magic Pot, which started as a gift to my baby girl and as a way to memorialize my mom, but God had bigger plans for it. I am so super excited to share this very personal project with the world and even more excited about the impact it will have.
I’ll close with one of the single most important facts about me, I am a lover of God and my testimony is simple - God kept me and He keeps on keeping me. insert a praise break here
Well, that’s enough about me. If you’d like to know more, jump over to my blog and be sure to let me know you were there.
I’m really looking forward to connecting with you. Thanks again for stopping by!
Talk soon, Luv!
