Unapologetic Tea Aficionado. Poet. Author. Dancer. Social Innovator.
Verna L. Hamilton is a dancer, author, and unapologetic tea aficionado who infuses grace, wit, and deep industry expertise into every space she creates.
Verna has shared her knowledge on global stages from the World Tea Expo in Las Vegas to the Global Tea Expo in İstanbul. She seamlessly pairs her academic roots—holding a BS from Florida A&M University’s School of Business & Industry and a Master of Marketing Research from the University of Georgia’s Coca-Cola Center for Marketing Studies—with a passion for mindful community.
Today, Verna channels her love for culture, movement, and education into cultivating modern spaces for authentic connection as a certified yoga teacher, dedicated multilinguist, and creative strategist. Her lifelong love for rhythm and language even led her to drum and dance through Salvador, Bahia, Brazil. With passport in hand, she remains ever-ready to travel next toward the world’s remaining tea-producing nations, admiring the leaf wherever it grows.
