ABOUT

Hiii, I’m Mya, a twenty-three-year-old New Yorker with a passion for all things beauty, baking, wellness, and pop culture. Welcome to my little corner of the internet.

More About Me: 
I’m just a girl navigating the unfolding chaos of post-graduate life. Originally from Long Island, I grew up in a loud & vibrant Caribbean household, and spent many weekends exploring the intricacies of New York City. I recently graduated college with a degree in Public Health and Communications, and thought “why not put at least half of it to use?” Right now, I’m just living in the moment, taking everything day-by-day, and absolutely romanticizing the fuck out of my life.

What You’ll Find Here:

I’d like to think that my blog is like a “purse”. In the same way a purse cradles a universe of essentials – from lip gloss to snack stashes – my blog is a digital haven, where each post is a pocket holding the little treasures of my world. Just like the contents of a purse tell a story, my blog unfolds a narrative of beauty discoveries, delicious recipes, and the delightful bits of pop culture!

Food: You can find some of my favorite recipes that are as to make easy as they are delicious OR read up on food places I recommend trying when you’re in New York.

Wellness:  Discover some of the best ways to stay fit mentally, physically, emotionally, and spiritually.

Pop Culture: Read up on my opinions about the latest trending topics in entertainment.

Why “Mya, in Brooklyn”:
I wanted to create a space for all kinds of women. Whether you’re here due to procrastination and looking to kill sometime at work or interested in learning something new- this website is for anyone and everyone. This is a mere reflection of my journey as a young woman navigating her life in the heart of New York.
