 When she is not writing, she enjoys time with her family and providing platforms for spoken word and performing artists looking to perfect their crafts.

 T.J. established TJ Hope Presents LLC in 2016, providing spaces for artists to grow, express their talents, gain collaborations, fans, and followers. These events offer a unique and different vibe for South Floridians to attend and experience spoken and performing art.
