She brings almost 20 years of experience blending cultural storytelling, event production, and strategic marketing to help brands and organizations make meaningful, lasting impact.

Through Saint Josephine, she has created transformative experiences and content for institutions such as Habitat for Humanity, Black Education for New Orleans, Greater New Orleans Funders Network, AARP, Step Up Louisiana, the City of New Orleans, and Viiv Healthcare, Dillard University among many others. A lifelong culture bearer and advocate for creative equity, Gabrielle was named the 2025 Zydeco Ambassador by C.R.E.O.L.E., Inc., and is the producer of the "Live at NOLA Zydeco Fest" album, released January 2025 on all major streaming platforms. She is the co-founder of The Big Easy Vibe Fest, a New Orleans-based festival celebrating cannabis innovation and culture, and continues to produce signature cultural events like the New Orleans Zydeco Festival, Beaucoup Hoodoo Festival, and Know-La at The Essence Festival.
