About Me

I am dedicated to empowering individuals to overcome challenges and achieve their full potential. I hold a Master of Science in Social Work from Columbia University, with a minor in International Relations, and a BA in Cultural Anthropology from Hofstra University, which provided a strong foundation in cross-cultural awareness and analytical thinking.

My work supports individuals and communities in navigating challenges, embracing opportunity, and living with purpose, grounded in the culture, values, and experiences that shape identity. 

As host of “In Conversation with Shabieko Ivy,” I explore human rights, purpose, and the ways culture and values influence identity. I am committed to guiding people toward resilience, confidence, and meaningful growth.
