Bonjour!

Well I have a double dose of exciting things for you today. The first is that it’s Friday. And that means featured friend of Duchess day! I love learning more about these fabulous women I’m featuring and most have become fast friends and respected business peers. The second is that the Duchess Digest has gone front page. So if you want to read my front page featured article called “Sex and the City of Angels,” check out www.singlemindedwomen.com

Now – today’s featured lady is nothing short of miraculous. I remember meeting Aneesah and hearing her talk about LionessLA. It sounded great. Then I went to one of her events as a club in Beverly Hills and just about died. Talk about having your shit together! This woman brings her A-game every time and the game with LionessLA is wired tight! It was the most amazingly planned, organized and fun event I’d been to in Los Angeles. Great vibe, fabulous music and tons of fun people. She’s not just a great business woman, she also happens to be a caring, loving and funny as hell person. She has a heart of gold, could carry her own stand-up show and does the most amazing work. Enough of my blabbing, let’s pass the mic over to Aneesah to hear more . . .

“My love for music equates to my love for helping people – and I can’t live without music.”

This is the fuel that drives Aneesah Williams’ passion and dedication to LionessLA and its mission. A graduate of the University of Southern California’s Thornton School of Music, Aneesah earned her Bachelors of Science in Music Industry. She also studied ethnomusicology at UCLA and double majored in music & business while attending UC Santa Cruz. Aneesah has not only turned her love for quality music and entertainment into a career but also a way of life.
Having worked and interned for legendary companies including Universal Music & Video Distribution, Interscope Records, Nettwerk Management, MCA PR, and Disney, Aneesah works to build a solid reputation for herself and LionessLA in the entertainment industry. She is also a consultant for the Beverly Hills Star Factory, and holds a position on the Board of Advisors. Working closely with youth in Los Angeles County, and volunteering for phenomenal organizations like the Breast Cancer Society and Aids Project Los Angeles, Aneesah has nurtured her fervor for giving back from a young age. Her enthusiasm for philanthropy is invested into the core of LionessLA as she daily builds alliances with other phenomenal businesses and organizations.
