Born in Brooklyn, New York. Geneviève attended high-school at the Peddie School, a private boarding school in New Jersey. She continued her high-level education at Howard University. Geneviève majored in Radio, Television and Film with a minor in Photography and Fashion, and became a graduate in May 2000 with a bachelor’s degree in Communications. The Howard experience and networking ability has catapulted Geneviève onto a plateau of readiness for the promise of what is yet to come.
Geneviève is an entrepreneur who aspires to building an empire by establishing an international, multi-media enterprise. Currently, Geneviève is making her mark as a freelance producer and photographer. During her career as Supervising Producer of BET’s Bobby Jones Gospel Show and The Next (produced and directed), she has made BET history, by producing 25 of the highest rated BJG shows, within the 30 year history of the BET network, recognized for reaching over 1 million viewers per show. She is a specialist in television, film, radio, alternative photography, and talent management; as well as fashion show productions, fashion designing and styling, event planning and promotions, and talent scouting. She is an exquisite on-air host and aspiring actress; and she is a willing volunteer.
Most recently, Geneviève has founded the Raymond L. Nixon Scholarship Foundation Incorporated, a non-profit dedicated to providing scholarship, mentorship and career placement assistance to high school seniors and freshman or sophomore college students who currently attend or will be attending a historically black college or university (HBCU), in honor of her father who is recently deceased. With a philanthropic passion and spirit such as hers, it is no surprise that in less than a year, Genevieve is a highly sought-after and outspoken panelist and motivational speaker.
