Sian Bitner-Kearney, Founder & Executive Director of Rock Your Beauty
“At Rock Your Beauty, we are committed to fostering a community where diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) are not just ideals but active practices that are ingrained in everything we do. We believe that beauty exists in everyone, and it is our mission to amplify voices that have been historically marginalized, empower all identities, and celebrate the full spectrum of human expression.”
