We’re so excited to bring 2 speakers to CreativeMornings Oakland this month to mark our 2 Year Anniversary!

Aniyia Williams
Aniyia founded Tinsel in response to the lack of tech products developed with women in mind. After coming up with the idea of an audio accessory that doubles as a beautiful piece of jewelry, she decided to leave her role as Head of Marketing with Voxer in 2014 and build create the company. Her unique background in tech and the arts spans beyond marketing into brand building, community management and business development. After a decade of training as a singer of classical music and opera, and time spent fundraising major gifts for Wolf Trap Foundation for the Arts and the Levine School of Music, she joined the mobile messaging startup Voxer as a Community Manager and worked her way to leading the Marketing team. Aniyia is also currently on the board of audio engineering non-profit Women’s Audio Mission.
