Being a working mom can be the challenge of a lifetime, and being a working mom of color often presents its own unique set of challenges. After birthing her son, Myya Passmore learned these lessons firsthand. Now, she's dedicated to creating a space—Hello Mom Tribe—for fellow working moms of color to come together for sisterhood, empowerment, and support.
Myya Passmore is a trailblazing Miami millennial, specializing in diversity marketing and outreach, real estate and small business development. She is the mom to a fearless and fiery son, Kal Ace, that inspires her everyday. Myya spent a decade as a marketer and business owner engaging in sales, content creation, advertising, and outreach for municipalities, public sector and for major brands like Dunkin Donuts and Coca-Cola. Today, the Miami's 40 Under 40 recipient, is the proud owner of a multicultural marketing and outreach consulting firm Culture 44. During the day she runs the marketing and public relations for a community redevelopment agency in Miami as a full-time career mom and mompreneur.
