“A lot of people have stopped wearing masks, but In terms of service industries and entertainment, if you take a look around, we're all still wearing them. The bodies we are putting out onto a stage are human bodies and if we can find a way to make sure they're protected, of course, we'll do that. We love our actors, we love our performers, and it's an easy thing for us to do.”
Jhanay Williams is a Caribbean-American creative marketer, theater producer and entrepreneur. She has several years of experience in international marketing, business development, brand strategy, and digital advertising. She holds a Master's Degree in Global Communications, with a focus in Visual & Material Culture. Jhanay is passionate about building unique, personalized, and creative stories for brands globally – backed by her academic background in art, languages, and international communications, as well as 24+ countries visited before the age of 24. 
You’ll love this fresh take on seeing the world through a different lens. Jhanay chats with us about how she’s been told that she “speaks White,” and how her global travels taught her to be an expert outsider, but also helped her to discover her own identity and place in the world. Jhanay gives us an inside look into the entertainment industry today, and how crowds coming together in-person to watch their favorite singers, dancers and entertainers are protected by crews who are committed to keeping everyone healthy with updated vaccines and regimented COVID protocols behind-the-scenes.
