Take some time to learn more about me through this site and subscribe to my substack to follow along in my journey.


Hi, I’m glad you found me. I’m Ayanna Dutton-Diaz, an Afro-Panamanian, vision-builder, and New Yorker (Brooklyn stand up!)

I craft experiences for organizations and people that help bridge gaps and create safe spaces for impact and possibility. With an MBA in Entrepreneurship and a multifaceted trajectory in corporate and non-corporate organizations, my purpose is to create spaces for impactful stories to be told, and help others do the same. 

At work this looks like: Outlining strategic frameworks, creative problem-solving, and building a plan for execution for marketing organizations. I’ve done this for some of the world’s best-in-class brands including: LinkedIn, Meta, Dentsu, Coach, Coty Inc., Wacoal America, and Cadillac to name a few. 

In life this looks like: Cultivating safe and diverse spaces, bringing to life cultural activations, and relationship-building that champions community. As the co-founder of Non-Corporate Girls, LLC a podcast and lifestyle media platform built with your professional and entrepreneurial wellness in mind, I’ve spent the last six years dedicating myself to building the bigger picture.
