Join Alexus Roberts on Adobe Live as she uses Photoshop to embellish a self-portrait with visual storytelling elements. Over two days she’ll create a collage that questions unrealistic expectations women of color face in the corporate industry. Embracing and emphasizing her natural hair, the end result will be an empowering representation of what it means to be a black woman in corporate America. Tune in, share your story and help Alexus select images as she works!
